Shanghai to set up universities with Germany, UK by Shen Mengdan

Shanghai's education authorities have announced an annual work plan that includes plans for two new Sino-foreign universities.

These are part of the city's initiatives to promote global education cooperation and exchanges.

The Shanghai Education Commission has signed agreements with German and British universities to set up the Sino-German University of Science and Technology and the Sino-British Arts Institute.

The Sino-German University of Science and Technology, which will come up in the Lingang New Area, will be developed jointly by the commission, Tongji University in Shanghai, the German University Consortium for International Cooperation and three three German universities for applied sciences. It will follow the model of German universities in the applied sciences paradigm to cultivate talent needed by industries.

Shanghai's Donghua University, the Royal College of Art in London, and the Shanghai Education Commission will jointly establish the Sino-British Arts Institute.
