Ming Chuan University, a sister school to Saginaw Valley State University based in Taiwan, will host the grand opening of its Michigan campus Monday, June 23 at 1:30 p.m. This facility is located in the west wing of SVSU’s Regional Education Center.
Ming Chuan was the first Asian university to be accredited in the United States, by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. University officials at the two schools believe this joint venture is the only collaboration in Michigan where an Asian university has a physical campus in the state.
Initially, two joint graduate degree programs will be offered at Ming Chuan University-Michigan; classes will be taught by Ming Chuan and SVSU faculty. Students may pursue an International Master of Business Administration degree or a master’s degree in teaching Chinese as a second language.
Ming Chuan and SVSU also have a history of student and faculty exchange programs, which will continue.
