College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

A University contract involves mutual commitments between the University and another party that are intended to be binding. Commitments may be in the form of money or promises to transfer property or services.

A common misconception is that Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) and Memoranda of Agreement (MOA) are not contracts. Most often MOU’s and MOA's meet the above definition and, therefore, should be treated as contracts.
