BFSU CREATE: Think globally, act locally

Yang Dan, President of Beijing Foreign Studies University.

Upholding the concept of setting up our foreign campuses around the world, we have created a global strategy from 2020 to 2050, called BFSU CREATE. In my opinion, internationalization is not westernization, nor is it just copying and learning. It should be about finding something that transcends differences. 

Our slogan is "Think globally, act locally", we are doing our best to create a "glocal" campus, “glocal” university, by blending of "global" and "local". Through this way, we can better integrate Chinese wisdom with global resources.
