3+2 Collaborative Education Program Between Wayne State University and Central China Normal University
An agreement has been reached for Chinese students at Central China Normal University (CCNU) to study at Wayne State University (WSU) and receive master’s degrees. Based on the Agreement, qualified students enrolled at CCNU – after successfully completing the first three years of their undergraduate curriculum in the School of Physical Education at CCNU – will be eligible for acceptance into the Division of Kinesiology, Health and Sport Studies in the College of Education at WSU. After admission, the students will spend the next two years at WSU completing the required training curriculum to qualify for their Bachelor of Science degree to be awarded at CCNU and a Master of Science degree to be awarded by WSU. The WSU Graduate School will provide the top 10 qualified students with a Tuition Merit Scholarship which, if awarded, will cover the out-of-state portion of tuition. Ten students per year will be admitted to the program. For admission to the KHS physical education program, qualified students will need a GPA of 3.0 and TOFEL score of 550. The first wave of students is coming to WSU in Fall 2015. We hope this collaboration become “a continuing partnership with program goals that will foster internationalization. Using 3+2 program as a start, we will explore how we can extend such collaboration into teacher exchanges, collaborative research, collaborative graduate training, etc.”
The program coordinator for this collaborative program is Dr. Aifeng Huang. If you are interested in this program, you may contact him in the email: aifenghuang@mail.ccnu.edu.cn.
