Pitt has moved its office in China from Beijing to a new 60-story building in the center of Shanghai.

The Shanghai-based office, under the direction of the University Center for International Studies, will focus on recruiting undergraduate students, developing internship experiences in China for Pitt students and expanding the Pitt alumni network and programming in China. The office will provide support for activities not only in Shanghai but also in Beijing and other major cities throughout China.

Pitt will work with Pennsylvania’s envoy program office and the MBC Shanghai Co. to promote academic and educational initiatives between the University and China. The office is located in in Tomorrow Square at the JW Marriott Building in the city’s Huangpu District.
