Begun in the early 1990’s, JSU’s partnership with Wuhan University (WU) provides an opportunity for professors, staff and students from JSU to travel to Wuhan, China, to teach and study, as well as allowing professors from Wuhan to conduct research, teach classes and observe educational practices here in the US.

The Office of the Provost invites applications to receive professional travel support to Wuhan. Interested faculty members should apply using the Professional Development Leave Program application available on the Academic and Student Affairs web site under “Faculty Resources.” Applications should include a detailed proposal for lecturing and research (or performance and research, if applicable) at Wuhan University during May Term. The deadline for applications is November 1.

Faculty selected for this honor will be notified at the beginning of the Spring Term.
