  • Office of China Programs Newsletter
    Issue 1: November 2017 Office of China Programs Newsletter Visit our Website Director's Message Dear Colleagues and Friends, First of all, thank you for your continued engagement and support of the programs and activities related to China at Michigan State University. Over more than a decade ago, the Office of China Programs (OCP) was established with missions to promote collaborations in research, education, and technology transfer with China. As a result, MSU has seen a steady surge in Chinese student enrollments, a significant increase in collaborative research projects, various education programs, and faculty exchanges, leading to the current state of a much broader and diversified collaboration portfolio with many institutions and agencies in China. While MSU enjoys enhanced collaborations with China, by the end of 2015 the former founding Director of OCP, Weijun Zhao, decided to retire after years of service to MSU and particularly to the programs related to China. I resumed the directorship of the OCP in early 2016, yet with primary responsibilities still as the Director of the Center for Global Change. Since then, I have been working with deans, directors and staff in ISP, particularly ISP Dean Hanson, VIPP Director Xinyu Wu and Asian Studies Director Siddharth Chandra to continue the OCP's function while assessing challenges and opportunities ahead of the OCP. Given the complexity and changes in geopolitics, research, and education landscape in China, as well as the limited resources, the OCP has to focus on a fewer, but long-term collaborative initiatives with China. This decision and subsequent effort led to the campus wide Asia Hub Initiative, a new, innovative partnership to strengthen multilateral international collaborations, the Joint Institute with Nanjing Agricultural University, and One Health initiative with Shanghai Traditional Chinese Medicine University.

  • Development and Prospect of Guizhou-ASEAN Higher Education Cooperation and Exchange
    US-China Education Review B, April 2019, Vol. 9, No. 4, 128-139 doi: 10.17265/2161-6248/2019.04.002 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Development and Prospect of Guizhou-ASEAN Higher Education Cooperation and Exchange Su Xiang-jun Zunyi Medical University, Guizhou, China Economic globalization leads to educational internationalization. Thriving economic development in Asia, particularly the peaceful rise of China, promotes the interaction between China and Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), creating more opportunities and challenges for both parties to cooperate in all fields. Against the backdrop of China-ASEAN strategic partnership, the internationalization of higher education, a pioneer in Guizhou’s opening up, has become an important means for strengthening the connection between Guizhou and the outside world and accelerating the reform and development of Guizhou. Reviewing the higher education cooperation and exchange between Guizhou and ASEAN in the past 12 years, this article examines the achievements and insufficiencies in Guizhou-ASEAN higher education cooperation and exchange, and explores the current advantages and prospects for deepening Guizhou-ASEAN higher education cooperation and exchange in the future. It is argued that it would be the right direction for Guizhou to boost its higher education collaboration and development with ASEAN in the future by enlarging their collaborative scale, improving the quality of education, and highlighting its advantages and features in higher education internationalization. Keywords: higher education, cooperation and exchange, Guizhou, Association of Southeast Asian Nations Introduction International education is an important indicator for evaluating the comprehensive strength of an economy in the globalized world. As is known to all, the internationalization of education plays a major role in boosting the globalized process of a country or a region.
