International Outreach —<br />

<strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Pharmacy</strong> Visit to Taiwan<br />

Outreach extends well beyond our national borders. Ken Hale, Assistant Dean for<br />

Pr<strong>of</strong>essional and External Affairs, is establishing and maintaining liaisons with<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essional organizations and external constituencies. Included in his external affairs<br />

work is an increasing institutional emphasis in international affairs.<br />

A delegation from our <strong>College</strong> visited the National Taiwan <strong>University</strong>, National<br />

Yang-Ming <strong>University</strong> and China Medical <strong>University</strong> in October 2006 to foster<br />

collaborations in research, teaching and pharmacy practice development. <strong>The</strong> visit<br />

was coordinated by Dr. Ching-Shih Chen, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Medicinal Chemistry at<br />

OSU. Among the academic leaders from Taiwan involved in this visit was Dr. Shoei-<br />

Sheng Lee, a PhD alumnus <strong>of</strong> our <strong>College</strong>, who is the Dean <strong>of</strong> <strong>Pharmacy</strong> at<br />

National Taiwan <strong>University</strong>.<br />

While in Taiwan our faculty participated in scientific and practice symposia, met<br />

with faculty and students and toured research and practice facilities. Agreements<br />

were signed to explore future research, teaching and practice-related collaborations.<br />

In addition the delegation met with OSU <strong>Pharmacy</strong> alumni for a wonderful<br />

Taiwanese dinner.<br />

This visit to Taiwan will lead to outstanding educational and research<br />

opportunities for our faculty and students interested in international relationships.<br />
