20 Sept, University of Fribourg delegation visits ECNU, East China Normal University
On the occasion of the “Rendez-vous in Shanghai”, an annually seminar week organized by the ECNU, East China Norman University, a delegation from the University of Fribourg is visiting Shanghai.
The visit of the delegation emphasizes the tradition of the Sino-Swiss relation of the University and aims to foster scientific network between participants and to present an opportunity for Chinese students and European professors to connect in a direct dialog.
In 2004, under the initiative of the University of Paris I Pathéon-Sorbonne, with the ECNU Eastern China Normal University and other partners, the first annual meeting was held. The University of Fribourg participated first in 2008. Thanks to the engagement of Professor Duanmu Mei, former student at the University of Fribourg and chief editor of the book “Our years in Switzerland”, the University granted her support. The cooperation with the University of Paris I Pathéon-Sorbonne and ECNU East China Normal University has been reinforced in February 2010.
The University of Fribourg is located in the French speaking part of Switzerland. Its first faculty of law was implemented in 1763 and in 1889 the University was officially assigned by the province government.
More than 10’000 students and over 200 Professors, from 100 different countries are learning, teaching and studying on the five faculties (Theology, Law, Economics, Social science, Philosophy, Mathematics and Natural science).
