“…The name of the sending university is "home university" and the name of the receiving university is "host university, commonly home university will set a minimum GPA for students to be eligible to participate in such a program and the student should also meet the requirement of the host university as well, such as a certain level of language and GPA.

This study aims to check the attitudes of Tishk International University (TIU) students towards student exchange programs in terms of awareness, tendency, and challenges related to it. The study used an online questionnaire survey and the sample consisted of 150 students of Business faculty but only 100 valid responses were collected. The main findings of this study indicate an awareness and interest in student exchange programs, but the students are not seriously considering participating in such programs. The main channel for their information is word of mouth and the university employees. The study also found that the main factors limiting student participation were the language and that they prefer to do a full degree abroad after finishing their study and not the one-semester study that TIU provides. Oddly, the visa was not reported as an issue. Furthermore, the results were discussed and translated into recommendations for the university and paved the way for future studies on this topic.

“…Modern literature places mutual cultural understanding and knowledge transfer among the core objectives of higher education generally and higher education exchange, particularly (Atalar, 2020;Marilyn DeLong et al, 2011;Sowa, 2002;Vande Berg, Paige, & Lou, 2012). However, these two goals are no new to the academia of ancient times.…”

In the last few decades, much ink has been spilt on the Sino-African relations. However, most literature concentrated on the economic, diplomatic, and political aspects of the Sino-African encounter, while few pieces of research touched upon the educational and cultural aspects of this encounter. With the increasing higher education and cultural exchange between China and the African countries in recent years, looking back at history, as a source of valuable insights to understand the present and forecast the future of this relationship, comes to the fore. This paper intends, through an analogical approach, to review and unveil the Sino-African higher education and cultural exchange before 1911. The author argues that by reviewing the educational and cultural impact of both sides' scholars' and travellers' visits with their backgrounds and legacies according to the modern literature on higher education exchange goals, these scholars' and travellers' visits would be regarded as the earliest forms of the Sino-African higher education and cultural exchange.
