Hanban provides a grant for the establishment of the Confucius Institute at Prairie View A&M University

Project narrative

On July 3, 2013, the Confucius Institute Headquarters (Hanban) and the Prairie View A&M University signed an agreement to establish the Confucius Institute at Prairie View A&M University. As part of the agreement, Hanban is obligated to provide teaching materials, an annual fund, and numbers of Chinese instructors. The funds are dispersed through a local Bank of China account or other approved bank account created by the institute. The agreement has a 5-year validity and automatically renews at the end of every 5-year term. In 2013, Prairie View A&M University and Xi'an International Studies University (西安外国语大学), the cooperating partner, signed a supplementary implementation agreement. Xi'an International Studies University agreed to provide one or two visiting scholars annually, donate teaching materials, and receive student study groups.
