Construction on a new university co-founded by the Beijing Institute of Technology and Lomonosov Moscow State University will begin in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, early next year, in a move that will further cement educational cooperation between China and Russia.
The new campus will begin to recruit students in 2016, according to an agreement signed by the universities' presidents in September, and will recruit 300 to 500 students annually until 2021, with the goal of reaching a student body of 5,000. Graduates will receive diplomas from MSU and the co-founded university issued by the Chinese Ministry of Education.
The school will serve undergraduates and graduate students seeking advanced degrees.
