Liaoning University (LNU), Sun Wah International Business School (SWIBS)

Liaoning University (LNU) is a comprehensive institution of higher education under the administration of the Liaoning provincial government. It offers programmes in a wide range of disciplines, including Literature, History, Philosophy, Economics, Law, Science, Engineering, Business Management and Art. LNU is based on three campuses: the Chongshan and Puhe Campuses, located in Shenyang, and the Wusheng Campus in Liaoyang.

LNU started as the Northeast Business College in November of 1948. LNU was formed as a major university in 1958.  LNU has 27 schools and 62 research institutes, with over 26,000 students, including over 18,000 undergraduate students, over 7,400 students studying master's programs and 880 PhD candidates.

DMU has had a successful partnership with LNU since 2004 when a joint institute was established between the two institutions. Within the Joint institute, Sun Wah International Business School (SWIBS), as a faculty of LNU, and De Montfort University’s, Faculty of Business & Law, have collaborated on an enhanced progression agreement partnership under a 2+2 model. LNU students studied 2 years of the LNU award and then had the option to transfer to DMU to achieve a DMU award. Over the duration of the 2+2 partnership (supported by flying faculty teaching from DMU on some modules), many students have progressed to DMU, and many have also gone on to study their master’s degree before returning to China.

The 2+2 programmes are being phased out and replaced with 4+0 Dual Award programmes; where the joint programme is delivered entirely in China over a period of 4 years. The new dual award provision partnership commenced in September 2023.
