the auspices and academic leadership of the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics (SWUFE)

TC-SWUFE is one of the top 100 independent colleges of China

Recognized in 2010 for excellent graduates by Sichuan Province and received the “21st Century Innovation Demonstration Site of Education Reform” national award

Opportunity

The development of Sichuan Missouri University presents the opportunity to link the University of Missouri and the economy of the state of Missouri to one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing economies in today’s global economy.

Timeline September 2011

– UM Board of Curators approved agreements

October 2011– Application/proposal submitted to Sichuan Province Board of

Education and Provincial officials

March 2012– Additional land to be acquired– Application to be submitted to Chinese Ministry of Education

May 2012– S&T and UMSL chancellors to be interviewed by Ministry of

Timeline June 2012

– License to be issued by Ministry of Education– Develop curricula– Advertise/hire faculty

March 2013– Ministry of Education to approve proposed degree

program curricula

September 2013– First cohort of students to enter SMU

How We Will Do It

SMU will pay all costs associated with– Facilities– Laboratory equipment– Start-up– Recruiting faculty– Faculty and staff salaries and benefits– Travel costs associated with S&T and UMSL faculty

spending a semester at SMU– Operating costs (e.g., E&E expenses)

UM (S&T and UMSL) investment will be limited to intellectual capital and “know-how”

What’s In It For Us? Increased visibility and enhanced brand image in

largest higher education market

Further enhance UM reputation as a leader in international education

Increased ability to recruit top students from China

Enrollment increases from SMU students who want to complete their degrees in Missouri

Income generated by providing our intellectual capital and “know-how” (10% of tuition collected or a minimum of $1000/student/year)

What’s In It For Us?

No requirement for UMSL or S&T to invest capital in the project

Serve as a bridge between rapidly growing regional economy (#5 regional economy in China) and the state of Missouri, possibly providing clients for proposed China Air Cargo hub in St. Louis

What’s In It For Us? Located in Longtan Industrial Park

Significant opportunity to deliver non-credit training programs and contract research from co-located companies in Chengdu and Sichuan

Significant opportunity to deliver distance courses

S&T degree programs’ projected enrollment at “steady state” is 2,500 students resulting in new revenue of $2,500,000 per year

What’s In It For Us?

Will create increased study abroad opportunities in China for UM students, in a situation where they will be able to take major courses taught in English and following the course outline of their home campus

Will create faculty development opportunities for UM faculty who will have open invitations to teach at SMU
