Sino-British College-University of Shanghai for Science and Technology

The Sino-British College (SBC) is an international university college, jointly established by the University of Shanghai for Science & Technology (USST), and 9 leading British Universities: The University of Bradford, The University of Huddersfield, The University of Leeds, Leeds Beckett University, Liverpool John Moores University, Manchester Metropolitan University, The University of Salford, The University of Sheffield, and Sheffield Hallam University.

SBC became a fully licensed university college on September 1st, 2006. It is the only Shanghai-based higher education institution to be awarded a license by the Chinese Ministry of Education to offer full degree programmes taught entirely in English to multiple overseas universities (the so-called "1 to N Consortium Model"), either taught entirely at the Shanghai campus, or with a period of study abroad. Graduates are awarded degrees from one of the partner British institutions. 

SBC is based in a beautiful historic campus in the heart of the city of Shanghai. Currently, it has about 1,800 full-time undergraduate students and about 120 international students from nearly 40 countries and regions. Degree programmes are taught entirely in the English language across the whole spectrum of Business and Engineering by a highly qualified academic team comprising about 80 international staff from 20 different countries plus about 100 bilingual administrative staff many of whom have studied for international degrees.

In the summer of 2014, SBC hosted two graduation ceremonies for students graduating from the University of Huddersfield (Events Management) and from Liverpool John Moores University (Engineering). As the fourth cohort of SBC/USST students completing full UK bachelor's degrees entirely in English in Shanghai, the 2014 graduates have been recognised as having achieved great success both in terms of outstanding academic performance, social responsibility through their charity work and high employability with over 96% already employed or in Graduate programmes at excellent universities in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia etc.

The SBC team is committed to offering international degree education at the very highest level with continuing support from partner universities in both China and the UK.
