Dr. Lina Xiong oversees these collaborations for CSU, with support from other faculty.<\/span><\/p>\n

MTM-China was adapted from CSU\u2019s original MTM program and translated into Mandarin for the 2016 launch. Notably, it offers Chinese students the chance to earn a graduate degree in tourism management from CSU without stepping foot in the U.S. or taking English language tests (e.g, TOEFL, IELTS). While course content is delivered online in Mandarin and English, students are in fact based at the CCNU campus in the city of Wuhan, where they receive additional bilingual engagement (face-to-face and online) from both CCNU faculty and CSU faculty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Programs and collaborations continue to expand in consideration of, and in partnership with, CSU\u2019s global partners in China and elsewhere. One advancement was the launch of a second Master’s program in Park and Protected Area Management in Fall 2022 (see here<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
