East China Institute of Technology appoints
ISEP staff as honorary professors

Dr Brendan Murtagh and Dr Stephen Mc Kay were invited to the East China Institute of Technology (ECIT) in Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province in January 2008. Collaborative research has been ongoing for two years with Dr Pinghui Liu of ECIT, on comparative planning and development between the European Union and the People’s Republic of China (PRC).
