Yang Yonghong making a presentation to the GSIS community in the Korbel Lounge. The Center draws on the expertise of its Associates and Council members and all units of the University to develop in conjunction with relevant Chinese institutions training programs for U.S. and Chinese officials and for employees of business and non-profit associations of all kinds.
Several programs are now in place.
A number of GSIS students have done dissertation research or language training at these schools, and a number of DU faculty members have spent time teaching and doing research there as well. The hope is that it might pave the way for future exchanges of this type as well. The University s School of Mass Communications, in conjunction with two counterparts in China, has developed a summer training course for senior newspaper editors. The Center is helping with a minor support role. In connection with GSIS International Business Transactions degree program, GSIS and the University of Denver College of Law have been considering certificate programs for Chinese law graduates presently working or hoping to work in the transnational sector.
