University system

A university system is a group of universities that work together. Universities work together to make sure they have the best educational standards and that they are giving the best education to their students. Through working together, they can share resources like professors, research materials, and technology that would be too expensive or too hard to have just at one university. Universities also join together to collaborate on research, exchange ideas, and build partnerships with one another. By working together, universities can make sure that more people have access to a high-quality education.
