As the second largest economy in the world with 50% of global manufacturing capacity and generating 13% of global GDP, China is a major economic power. Universities are at the cutting edge of the internationalization of China as the source of the skilled workforce required to maintain economic growth and to lead Chinese business into the next phase where they will compete with other multinational companies in third markets.
