THREE DECADES OF CHINESE STUDENTS IN AMERICA
On February 15, 2023, USCET completed its survey of Chinese students who earned a degree at US universities and colleges between 1991 and 2021. The survey questions focus on the campus experience, including students’ social experiences, their level of involvement and integration at school, and their overall satisfaction level. The survey also explores students’ motivation for attending school in the US, and how their feelings about the US and China may have changed after their study in America.
AMERICAN STUDIES NETWORK (ASN)
The American Studies Network (ASN) is a group of more than 50 schools with programs and centers of American Studies. USCET supports the ASN by sponsoring programs throughout China to strengthen and expand the teaching of American Studies and understanding of the United States. Institutions based in China and Hong Kong with established or developing American Studies programs are eligible to join the ASN.
