DSU establishes new partnerships with Chinese universities
  Delaware State University has recently expanded its partnerships in China with agreements with three universities -- Sanming University, Zhaoqing University and Ningbo University of Technology -- that will bring about 100 Chinese students to DSU in the fall and send DSU faculty members to teach in that Far East country.
The agreements with Sanming University and Zhaoqing University facilitate student and faculty exchanges. About 60 Chinese students from those two institutions will attend DSU in the fall as part of the American Cultural Program, in which the students will take English courses to improve their fluency and also courses in American literature and history. Another 40 Chinese students will enroll at DSU in a regular degree program.
The agreement with Ningbo University of Technology will send DSU accounting faculty to that university to teach courses that will introduce the latest curricula, education resources and teaching methods in the United States in the field of accounting, as well help familiarize Ningbo students with international accounting practices and sound business principles.
