More than 150 students from Hongkong, Taiwan, Chinese mainland, and foreign countries such as India and the United States have returned to register for the upcoming semester at the Nanshan campus of Georgia Tech Shenzhen Institute, Tianjin University.

GTSI is a cooperative education institution by Tianjin University and Georgia Institute of Technology, the campus has the same standards as Georgia Tech in terms of admission procedures, curriculum and class design, evaluation mode and academic degree rules.
Wang Haoren, from Taipei, Taiwan Province, returned to the campus after working for HTC in Taipei for two years.
“Georgia Tech’s classes are of high quality. I am sure that they will be conducted in Shenzhen the same way as in the US. Shenzhen is also close to Taiwan, so I chose to study in GTSI,” he said.
This is also Wang's first visit to Shenzhen in which he says the city has left a deep impression on him.
"I hope to find a job in Shenzhen after graduation" he added.
