Recognizing the importance of China to the economic and political future of Wisconsin and the United States, the Division of International Studies is convening an exceptional group of faculty, alumni, and leaders in business and government to bolster research and teaching about China, to create new partnerships between Chinese higher education institutions and the UW-Madison, and to develop plans for strategic engagements between China and the State of Wisconsin. The goals of the China Initiative are to:

Integrate the study of China across the curriculum to promote global competence and to advance internationalization

Improve resources at the university to facilitate the development of new teaching strategies and research about China

Coordinate activity related to China to create dynamic synergies and a clear point of contact for the campus and state communities

Disseminate knowledge about China to benefit Wisconsin citizens and business

Create partnerships between educational, governmental, and corporate institutions in China and Wisconsin
