A message from the Senior Manager of the Faculty International Office:

Welcome!

This blog is a reflection of the work of various students and staff involved in the Summer School as it has evolved over the years.

The Summer School is hosted by one of the Faculty’s partner institutions, Xiamen Univerisity in south-eastern China.

On behalf of everyone who participated in the Summer School, I would like to thank Tang Maosha, Huang Ying and all of the other staff in Xiamen SOE, along with Zhao Tiefu, our colleague who helped to make the trip such a tremendous success. I would also like to thank the fabulous volunteers who went out of their way to make our students feel welcome and ensured that they had a truly authentic experience of Xiamen student life.

I hope you enjoy looking at the blog and that you are inspired to join the trip in future years.
