The University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) is a Sino-foreign cooperative university in Ningbo, Zhejiang, China. UNNC was established in 2004 by a partnership between the University of Nottingham and the Zhejiang Wanli University.[1]

UNNC offers a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes, all of which are taught in English.[2] The degrees awarded to students are University of Nottingham degrees.[2] Undergraduate students of Chinese nationality also receive an additional bachelor's degree from the University of Nottingham Ningbo China.[3]

The university is officially recognized by the Ministry of Education of China, which considers it an independent institution with its own degree-awarding authority at the bachelor's level.[4] Meanwhile, the University of Nottingham in the UK and Liu Xiaoming, then-Chinese ambassador to the UK, considers UNNC as an overseas branch campus of the University of Nottingham (along with the University of Nottingham Malaysia).[5][6]
