Learning experience that benefits the world

China Daily  

Having international education mobility in top universities in China, the United States and Europe is a win-win approach for the human race, said Mary M. Dwyer, president and chief executive officer of the Institute for the International Education of Students, during an exclusive interview with China Daily on June 2. Despite the US government's recent announcements about plans to cut back the number of Chinese students seeking further education in the country, numerous US higher education institutions are still unveiling policies that welcome Chinese students, says Dwyer. She points out that a number of elite universities in the US, including those in the states of Pennsylvania, Illinois, California and Ohio, have been working closely with IES and the Study Abroad Foundation to develop innovative programming to serve Chinese students who are not able to attend classes in-person this fall due to travel restrictions. "The COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced the value of Chinese students in US universities, which have acknowledged in the US press how concerned they are about not being able to receive Chinese students, who account for around one-third of international students in US educational institutions," Dwyer says. Chinese students would naturally have doubts during this time of uncertainty, but they are largely eager to study overseas and are still making plans in the face of travel restrictions, says Dwyer.
