A select few go to Germany to participate in the German Academic Exchange Service's (DAAD) Research Internships in Science and Engineering (RISE) program. In summer 2010, Vanderbilt sent nine students to participate in the RISE program - more than any other university in the United States. Vanderbilt students studying Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and Physics went to universities in Berlin, Leipzig, Stuttgart, and other cities, where they aided doctoral students with research. In the process, they gained both academic knowledge and practical skills. The program represents a win-win situation for both visiting students and the doctoral candidates.

Since that time, the partnership has grown to include over two dozen research collaborations, and faculty, staff and student exchange. Last fall, Vanderbilt and Melbourne were excited to announce a new initiative, the Melbourne-Vanderbilt University Partnership Grants Program, designed to take our research collaborations to the next level.
