A signing ceremony for academic exchange agreement and a joint program agreement between Josai University Educational Corporation and Northeastern University, China, was held at Kioicho Campus on August 6, 2010.

Northeastern University is located in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, and is designated as one of China’s high level universities by the government. A total of eight members of the university, including Dr. Jiang Maofa, Dean of the Graduate School, visited the campus on the day.
