“UNNC has achieved its stated intention to provide the 'Nottingham experience' in China in less than eight years. Students at UNNC receive as fully a British education as it is possible to provide in China. Together with the Malaysian campus, the University of Nottingham has created a tri-campus university that offers unique opportunities for student exchange and transnational education. “
