Members of the respective delegations from IU and Beijing Normal University met to discuss ways to expand upon a productive decade-long partnership.
The highly productive 10-year partnership between IU, including its top-ranked School of Education, and Beijing Normal University, one of China’s oldest and most prestigious universities, is formalized with the signing of an agreement by Beijing Normal University Professor of Education Liu Baocun and Arlene Benitez, interim director for the IU School of Education’s Center for International Education, Development and Research and director for the Institute for International Comparative Education.
