successful partnership

with Chongqing University in China. She welcomed 77 new students to UC in China, where students, with the help of UC, gain access to that nation's first-ever co-op program.

“Launching the first co-op program in China has been a huge success,” Davenport said. “Students and parents alike share a palpable excitement about being part of our Bearcat world.”
