'Equal’ transnational partnerships in higher education: Sino-foreign case studies

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talkResearch

Description

At this seminar, the evolving role of transnational higher education (TNHE) as part of wider national development policy was discussed.
Using the case of Sino-foreign educational partnerships, Dr Lim outlined several features of the evolution of policies to govern and achieve more ‘equal’ partnerships.
In China, TNHE partnerships are seen as an important part of its drive to build ‘World Class Universities’. Its case shows an increasing orientation towards quality over quantity of partnerships and a growing role for urban and regional geopolitics in the choice of its HE partnerships.
