Changchun Institute of Technology (CIT) is looking for UK partners interested in 4+1 articulation programmes in the fields of smart grid information engineering, surveying and mapping engineering and architecture. The 4+1 programmes will lead to a Bachelor’s degree from CIT and a Master's degree from the UK partner. 

Benefits for the UK partners
This is an opportunity for the selected UK partners to establish long-term partnerships with a strong provincial university in northeast China, with potential for expansion into other fields, such as student and faculty exchange and joint programmes. It is also an opportunity for the UK partners to raise their institutions’ profiles and brand awareness in northeast China, which may benefit student recruitment.

Upon selection of the UK partner the two universities will begin discussions on the exact nature of the articulation agreement.
