The agreement with Heilongjiang University has brought around 60 Chinese students to study at the University and numbers are expected to increase in coming years. As part of the programme, the students either study as Bradford undergraduates for three years or complete their Chinese Bachelor degree programmes by joining courses at Bradford in the final year. On successful completion of the undergraduate programme they can move on to related Masters courses at Bradford.

Professor Bell said: "This is a tremendous opportunity for long-standing collaboration with Heilongjiang University, both at undergraduate and postgraduate level, and represents the University's commitment to the international community."
