An agreement between CAS and the State Ethnic Affairs Commission (SEAC) on cooperation in SEAC-subordinated universities and colleges was signed December 20 in Beijing.
CAS promised to provide SEAC schools with necessary aid in areas such as curriculum development, talent cultivation, and academic exchanges. And the schools involved agreed to treat CAS experts with favorable conditions.
The deal also mentioned that the two parties would seek funding for cooperative programs through applying jointly for state R&D fund, or settle the issue through bilateral negotiations.
