About International Education Institute

NCEPU formulated the new development strategy with the purpose of making NCEPU into a first-class higher education provider domestically, an academically influential higher education institution internationally, and a multi-disciplinary, research-oriented, and internationalized university. As one important component of NCEPU’s Strategy, the main concern of its internationalization is to introduce an advanced philosophy of running a university, outstanding teaching and learning system, up-to-date teaching and learning materials, and thus to upgrade her operational capacity and academic reputation, thus cultivating the first-class talents.

To implement the internationalization strategy, the International Education Institute (IEI) was established in 2001 to develop international collaboration. The main function of IEI is to admit international students, provide the Chinese language and the English language learning services, and collaborate with the UK, American, Canadian, French, and Australian partner universities in joint undergraduate programs and credit transfer programs, under which NCEPU students will study both in NCEPU and corresponding partner universities abroad. Up to now, we have enrolled nearly 800 international students studying for the Chinese language, the academic programs taught in English, and Chinese on a part-time and full-time basis.

IEI has now been a home for both international students who are going to study degree programs, the Chinese language, and the Chinese students who are going to study abroad. With a well-equipped and satisfying learning environment, comfortable living conditions, every student in IEI will certainly enjoy their study and life here.
