Jacksonville State's Gamecocks Going Global

摘要

Jacksonville State University, located in Jacksonville, Alabama, is a state-supported, regional, coeducational institution. Two years ago, representatives from Jacksonville State University began speaking with specific staff and faculty members from Taizhou University (TU) located in Linhai, China. Conversations involving possible university collaborations took place and resulted in a signed memorandum concerning a joint degree program. This paper summarizes the experiences and challenges encountered in developing this exchange program between JSU and Taizhou University.
