First Sino-US joint university to start

Beijing: New York University Shanghai, the first Sino-US joint higher
education institute, will start to admit undergraduate students from
next year.

The first 300 undergraduates will study at East China Normal
University, the Chinese partner of the joint institute, before the new
campus is built.

The university, which broke ground a year ago, will launch seven
majors including finance, natural science, and information and
communication technology. IANS
