The group visited Ministry of Education (MoE) in Beijing during the visit to discuss how The University of Manchester could act with a stronger positive influence in the activities in China.

Part of the work that the University has been doing is forming and maintaining cooperative relations with local Partners.  Shanghai Tongji University has long been in a firm mutually beneficial relationship with UoM. Manchester Global MBA Project Pathway is jointly delivered by the two Partners. The group had a formal meeting with Professor Chen Song, Deputy of School of Economics and Management (SEM) at Shanghai Tongji University.
