Global University System (GUS) (Utsumi, et al, 2003) aims to build a higher level of humanity with mutual understanding across national and cultural boundaries for global peace. GUS is a worldwide initiative to create advanced telecom infrastructure around the world for global e-learning and e-healthcare/ telemedicine. GUS aims to create a worldwide consortium of educational and healthcare institutions to provide all world citizens with special emphasis on the underdeveloped world with access to 21st Century education and healthcare via broadband Internet. The philosophy of GUS is based on the belief that global peace and prosperity would only be sustainable through education. Education and job skills are the keys in determining a nation’s wealth and influence. The aim is to achieve "education and healthcare for all," anywhere, anytime and at any pace.
