This autumn has provided plenty of opportunities for the Centre for Hispanic Studies to make contact with some Chinese institutions and to develop existing projects. In October, the URV agents for Asia, Antoni Nomdedeu and Ángel Urquizu, visited four Chinese universities

The URV lecturers Antoni Nomdedeu Rull and Ángel Urquizu Cavallé between 12 and 21 October 2016 visited four Chinese universities: Zhejiang International Studies University, Zhejiang University, Yunnan Normal University and Beijing City University.

The main aim of these visits was to develop the various projects that the Centre for Hispanic Studies is involved in with Chinese universities. The meetings were extremely productive and it is expected that the number of students coming to the URV will remain stable or even increase during the academic year 2017-2018.
