UT-MIT (University of Tokushima and Massachusetts Institute of Technology) joint research project was conducted in conjunction with precision machine design class 2.75 and a significant result was obtained on the research of dental headrest adjustment mechanism. After a short introduction of precision machine design class 2.75, this paper describes a brief overview of UT-MIT joint project, including its background, procedures and results. Then the paper reviews the reasons why UT-MIT project achieved a successful result, and discusses the basic requirements on global PBL from several point of views, including competition/collaboration, individual/teamwork, carrots/sticks, ICT, online/offline, and field/language/culture.
