Jiangnan University was in the first group of higher-education institutions approved by China's Ministry of Education to enroll foreign students and has long been active in international exchanges and cooperation.
Since 1977, over 2,900 international students from more than eighty-six countries have received training and education at Jiangnan University. Many of them have earned reputations as experts and leaders in various fields of science and technology.
The School of International Education (SIE) is one of Jiangnan University's subordinate colleges. Its main duties include the education and supervision of international students, the provision of Mandarin Chinese language learning for foreigners, and the administration of exchange programs with foreign universities. In December of 2007, the School of International Education partnered with Lambton College (known as North American College as of 2011).
SIE acts on the principles of innovating, offering rigorous scholarship opportunities, and cultivating student abilities. The school has accumulated years of experience in recruiting international students while enlarging its overall scope of reaching an international population. All programs offered at Jiangnan University accept international students, where students can pursue Bachelor, Master, and PhD degrees. In addition, General and Advanced scholars interested in studying Mandarin Chinese and other areas of study are accepted. A select group of majors are also offered in English.
Over JNU's many years of perfecting its Mandarin Chinese language program, the services of a teaching staff of more than twenty full-time and part-time teachers have been employed. Also, beginner, junior, intermediate, and advanced courses for Mandarin Chinese language learning along with various short-visit camps according to different requirements are available.
