Our summer newsletter focuses on online learning, and the experiences of students, teachers, and researchers in the past few months, which have seen it become the norm. We interviewed various faculty and students from our member universities for this purpose, aiming to identify the advantages and disadvantages of online learning, and to understand what can make it a good experience.
Our spring 2020 newsletter provides updates on our plans in relation to the COVID-19 outbreak, detailing which activities are being postponed, and which ones we expect to take place as planned. You can also read about how Fudan has adapted to the new circumstances, and about measures China has taken to deal with the outbreak — in addition to other corona-related news.
Email your application to applications@nordiccentre.net by 11.59 PM, April 5, 2020.
The spring 2020 semester at Fudan has been postponed due to the outbreak of the new coronavirus. Please read the notice from Fudan’s Office of Global Partnerships here.
