Economics Henan University

Overview

The School of Economics at Henan University is one of the largest economic departments/schools worldwide. It has currently 160 faculty members and more than 3,000 students. Its history goes back to 1927 with the first establishment of a department of economics at Henan University.

Internationalization

The School of Economics expanded its international focus in recent years through various activities. Among them are close cooperations with universities in the US, Europe, Canada or Japan for student exchanges as well as research collaborations, special economics classes that are exclusively taught in English, but also the recruitment of new (often foreign) faculty members with excellent educational background from the US or Europe.

They regularly send the young staff members and scholars abroad for academic visiting programs and we established a close cooperation for our students with Stony Brook University in the US, University of Windsor in Canada, Cardiff Business School in the UK, and Nihon University in Japan.

They invite many well-known international and domestic scholars to give lectures and seminar presentations, among them were Nobel Laureates in Economics, James J. Heckman (Chicago University), Dale T. Mortensen (Northwestern University, Evanston), and Robert Mundell (Columbia University, NY).We are welcoming international students on all levels to study in the Economic programs taught in English.

Students have on the other side the opportunity to spend a part of their studies abroad at our partner universities.
