  • Growing Demand and Challenges Kuang-Ting Huang a Dissertation
    Remaking Chinese Planning as a Profession: Growing Demand and Challenges Kuang-ting Huang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Daniel B Abramson, Chair Jeffrey Hou, Chair Kam Wing Chan Susan H. Whiting Program Authorized to Offer Degree: College of Built Environments University of Washington Abstract Remaking Chinese Planning as a Profession: Growing Demand and Challenges Kuang-ting Huang Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Daniel B. Abramson Department of Urban Design and Planning Associate Professor Jeffrey Hou Department of Landscape Architecture Since China initiated its pro-market reform in 1978, the way Chinese cities are governed has undergone a profound change. Central to such change is the fundamental revival of urban land as economic assets, because of which making plans for future land use has become an increasingly important government function and therefore the practice of urban planning (chengshi guihua) has begun to expand and take shape as a profession. However, with the expansion and professionalization of Chinese planning, there is also a growing criticism against the way urban planning has been developed into a development- and profit-driven profession. This dissertation thus aims to examine the evolutionary process of Chinese planning, through which the key factors causing such contradictory development are identified: First, since the 1994 tax sharing reform, the government at the local level has been put under intense pressure to increase its reliance on land transfer revenue and pursue land development. Increasingly, the role of urban planning has been limited to serving as a tool to facilitate the process, leaving other concerns largely unaddressed.

  • Durham University and Fudan University November 2012 Executive Summary
    Review of UK transnational education in China: Durham University and Fudan University November 2012 Executive summary This is a relationship between two well established universities, both within the top 100 in the world rankings (QS): Durham University (Durham), which is a research intensive university and member of the Russell Group, and Fudan University (Fudan), which is a member of the elite C9 League of Chinese universities. The relationship is centred around the award of a doctoral programme in Business Administration (DBA) offered by the Durham University Business School. The strategic rationale for the Durham-Fudan DBA was to support the School in the internationalisation and diversification of its portfolio of post-experience business and management education, and strengthen the School's research collaborations in East Asia. Durham has adopted a conservative approach to the development of the partnership with Fudan. With the revised DBA programme, Durham and Fudan are now in a stronger position to increase collaboration in both teaching and research, building on the creation of a joint Centre for Finance Research launched at Fudan in 2010. The relationship is seen by both parties to be mutually beneficial in helping to raise their respective profiles in China and Europe. The collaborative partnership between Durham and Fudan provides students, who for reasons of work or other constraints cannot study or travel regularly to the UK, with the opportunity to pursue a leading DBA programme that mirrors the DBA programme at Durham. Although student mobility can be constrained by employment, domestic and visa issues, the Business School is investing in developing multimedia equipment to enhance communication between students and faculty.
