America. The Keuka-China international relationship has the official approval of the Office of Academic Degrees Committee for the State Council in the People’s Republic of China. --Keuka China Program: The Keuka-China program follows the same general education and major curriculum as the traditional domestic program, following a decision in 2010 by the Chair of the Business Division to ensure consistency of program goals. Keuka’s Chinese students take 90 credits delivered by the home institution, taught in their native language, and 30 credits delivered by Keuka instructors taught in English. Appropriately credentialed instructors with experience in teaching overseas maintain high standards and make clear their expectations for student learning. Faculty use standardized rubrics, designed collaboratively by the campus Dean for China Program and business faculty, for grading student work in particular upper-level courses. Leadership continues to be in the hands of the President of Keuka College in the U.S. and Dr. Michael Hwang, the Administrative Chancellor for Keuka China Programs, China Campuses, at the Keuka China Programs International (KCPI) office in China. Keuka College provides direct oversight of the Keuka China Programs in all academic areas, including: faculty hiring and evaluation; curriculum development; ensuring of academic rigor; and assessment of student learning. The VPAA and President conduct graduations at each campus each spring, and visit on other occasions as needed. They regularly address and report to the Board of Trustees on China Programs policy, budget and strategy matters. The Administrative Chancellor for Keuka China Programs, China Campuses, Dr. Michael Hwang provides continuous administrative support and program leadership at the KCPI office in Xiamen, China as he has done since the program’s inception, and has developed a successful and extensive Field Period and Career Management program for all Keuka China Program (KCP) students. The Dean for China Programs, reporting to the Chair of the Business and Management Division and Vice President for Academic Affairs, identifies faculty, oversees academic program implementation, with biannual visits to develop and maintain professional relationships with all partners, in addition to teaching on behalf of the Keuka China program In China, the Dean for China Programs conducts monitoring and support visits to each Chinese partner university (CPU) once per semester for the following purposes: • Quality control and improvement through meetings with Chinese partner universities (CPU) and KCPI administrators and leaders and attendance at annual Deans’ Staff Meeting for all Chinese partner universities, KCPI, and Keuka College. • Academic support and monitoring through faculty meetings, classroom teaching observations, and individual meetings with faculty members. • Teaching of FYE 101 introductory course or FP 401 capstone Field Period course at selected sites. • Student support and engagement through presentations to students and student feedback sessions. The overall purpose of these meetings is to establish and maintain a connection between Keuka College and students in China; with current sessions covering the following topics, though future topics may differ as needs change: o Spring semester Orientation for Year 1 students, o Fall semester Library and Study Skills for Year 2 students, o Fall and Spring information session on Study Abroad at Keuka College for Year 3 & 4 students. Interviews also conducted with applicants. Page 31 of 39 Chapter 6: Faculty, Ed Offerings & GenEd
• The Dean provides ongoing support for KCP faculty in academic matters and collaborates with the KCP office on hiring, scheduling and dealing with academic issues and student matters takes place on a daily basis. The Dean works with the campus Business Division to continuously review and update the KCP courses, assessments and program outcomes to match changes on campus, while taking advantage of the differences across sites that can be used for student learning. For example, KCP students compare Chinese business practices to those in the U.S, particularly in areas such as Leadership, Marketing, and Organizational Behavior. The Dean works with the Center for Experiential Education on assessment and monitoring of the extensive KCP Field Period program, and with the Center for Global Education on exchange programs for KCP students coming to Keuka College campus and for KC students going to China (for a complete report, see (see Appendix 6.27 Keuka China Programs Narrative). In addition, the Keuka College Registrar and Dean for Keuka China Programs work with KCPI to closely track the following information to ensure it is complete and accurate: • The annual teaching schedule. This is developed by the KCPI office, in consultation with Keuka College. • All faculty contracts and supporting personnel files. Faculty are appointed by the VPAA, and contracts are issued by KCPI, with credentials on file at both locations. • Student grades. These are submitted directly by the faculty members to the Keuka College registrar; grade reports are released to KCPI, students, and partner universities. Beginning in Fall 2012, faculty submit grades online and students can access them online. • Student records. Registrar provides duplicates to the KCPI office. All official records of academic credit earned in the China program, transcripts and diplomas, are issued by Keuka College. Keuka China students are recruited through the Chinese university enrollment system that begins with the national university entrance examination, or gaokao. Each university recruits students directly into the Keuka China Program at the specific campus. Students have selected a range of schools and programs based on the recruiting information provided by each university (see 2011 recruiting materials for each partner university on Keuka China Program’s Moodle page at http://online.keuka.edu) and are admitted to only one program based on exam scores. All admissions to the KCP program are conditional until the English language proficiency requirement is met. KCP enrolled 3441 students in Fall 2010, slightly less than 3000 in Fall 2011, and 2711 in Fall 2012. Enrollment has declined over the last few years, in part because China has reduced its national quota for management majors and in part because KCP reduced enrollment at Wenzhou University while intensifying the English-language entry requirements, finally halting new admissions for Fall 2012. For 2012-13, China programs enrollment totals 626 new students. --Vietnam Partner Universities: In March 2009 Keuka College entered into a contractual arrangement with International School Vietnam National University, Hanoi. (Keuka sought and received approval through formal Substantive Change requests process from MSCHE in 2009.) The 2009 contract made provisions for taking over the existing undergraduate degree program in business and management at International School Vietnam National University, Hanoi.
