Harvard school to attract more officials

CAMBRIDGE: Harvard's graduate school has renewed a five-year agreement for a joint program with Tsinghua University.

The agreement helps 50 to 60 officials go on a six-week rotation program, four of which is spent at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, or the graduate school, says Prof Tony Saich. During the other two weeks they visit New York, Washington D.C. and Michigan to experience US government's operations, according to Saich.

Executive associate dean of Tsinghua University's School of Public Policy and Management Xue Lan has been traveling between the two universities.
