Research on the Selecting Model of Confucius Institute Scholarships

Abstract

Through research on the selecting model of Confucius Institute scholarships, it is found that there are three types: Decision Type of the Confucius Institute Headquarters, Decision Type of Confucius Institute, and Decision Type of Hosting University. Confucius Institute scholarships include two categories: scholarships for degrees and scholarships not for degrees. In the first category, the Hosting University plays a leading role, while the Confucius Institute Headquarters and Confucius Institutes play a supporting role. In the second category, the Confucius Institute headquarters plays a leading role, while the Confucius Institute and Hosting University play a supporting role. In order to better achieve the goals and objectives of the Confucius Institute Scholarships, we must combine the strengths of the three selection models, not just one model.
