Warwick in China


Our collaborations with Chinese academic institutions span both research and education. They range from joint undergraduate research projects through to externally-funded UK-China research consortia - and involve a broad range of academic disciplines.

Our researchers work with China’s top universities including Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Tsinghua University, Peking University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Together, these researchers are publishing their discoveries in top international research publications and training the next generation of world-leading researchers.
