Rhodes to success
More students in the country are finding a path to academic achievement through international scholarship programs, He Wei reports in Shanghai.
Combating cross-border crimes has been a long-term dream for 25-year-old Mao Xiao. Holding a bachelor's degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and two law-related master's degrees from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, Mao pursues that goal by publishing papers in international academic journals and doing internships at The Hague, where the International Criminal Court is located.
Her dream gained an extra boost when she enrolled into the University of Oxford last year to continue her international law studies. Apart from the academic excellence and top-notch curriculum and faculty, the Rhodes Scholarship sponsoring her study at Oxford is making all the difference.
