ABSTRACT
Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools (CFCRS) is one of the more than 10 forms of transnational education in China and the only one that China's State Council has issued regulations for. CFCRS is closely related to cross-border education. Statistics show that about 600 foreign partners in CFCRS programs are from more than 30 countries and regions. By July 2016, 2,428 CFCRS institutions and programs had been approved by the Chinese government, among which 90% are in higher education. There are about 560,000 CFCRS students on campus nationwide and the graduates have exceeded 1.6 million. Center for Research on Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools at Xiamen University is the first institute in China that focuses on research on Chinese-Foreign cooperation in running schools. Xiamen University has been working together on CFCRS researches with some scholars such as Professor Gerard A. Postiglione at the University of Hong Kong for 14 years and it has been going deeper.
