New school aims to foster global governance talent

The Shanghai University of International Business and Economics announced the establishment of the city's first school of global governance on Monday to respond to the country's growing need for talent for international organizations.

It said the school will contribute to a larger and better reservoir of capable young talent who can actively participate in the reform and construction of the global governance system, in which China is playing an increasingly central role.

The main courses at the school will combine politics, economics and law, and many will be taught in English. All its graduates are fluent in English and French.
