Curtin University today marked a milestone in its relationship with one of China’s premier universities, Fudan University in Shanghai, paving the way for a student exchange program.<\/p>\n

Under a new student exchange agreement, Curtin undergraduate students in the Faculty of Humanities<\/a> will undertake study visits to Fudan University to study Chinese media and culture.<\/p>\n

It is proposed that undergraduate students from Fudan University will also undertake a semester of study in Curtin\u2019s journalism program.<\/p>\n

The agreement was signed by Curtin\u2019s Pro Vice-Chancellor, Humanities Professor Majella Franzmann and Fudan University\u2019s Dean of the College of Foreign Languages and Literature, Professor Chu Xiaoquan, at a ceremony in Shanghai, China.<\/p>\n

Professor Franzmann said the signing of the agreement marked a new era of cooperation that will open the doors to student and staff mobility and research collaboration between the two institutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a big day for Curtin Humanities students and I am confident that this agreement will lead to many new opportunities for cooperation,\u201d Professor Franzmann said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first agreement of its kind Curtin has signed with Fudan University, which is among the top universities in China.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe signing of the agreement coincides with a visit by the first group of Curtin Humanities students to Fudan University, who are currently taking part in lectures and visiting major media outlets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Associate Professor Steve Mickler, Head of Curtin\u2019s School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts<\/a>, said today\u2019s signing was the culmination of discussions between the two universities over the last four years.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver recent years we have developed a strong working relationship with Fudan University that has seen exchange visits by academics from both universities to present lectures and participate in research seminars,\u201d Associate Professor Mickler said.<\/p>\n

Associate Professor Joseph Fernandez, Head of Curtin\u2019s Department of Journalism, said the signing of the agreement presented a unique opportunity for Curtin students in an increasingly globalised media landscape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
