Pros

* The library has up-to-date and expansive titles on many fields. * Small but appreciated startup grant (RDF)

Cons

* A culture of fear and repression has taken over XJTLU. Don't be fooled by the name: There's nothing about the U. of Liverpool in this place; this is a 100% for-profit Chinese university in every sense. * Extraordinarily high turnover rate of foreign faculty. * Only consider if there's nothing else for you anywhere in the world.

Pros

Innovative mindset. Ambitious growth targets. Three education models 1.0 2.0 and 3.0 operating concurrently. Philosophy of integrating AI use into curriculum. Suzhou is affordable and relaxed city (compared to near neighbour Shanghai).

Cons

Private university approach to cost control. Command and control management approach. Rigid policies. Slow and inefficient platforms (e.g. e-Bridge).
