“HongFangLaw iMerit Scholarship” for ECUPL 2017-2027
Event at the ECUPL University in Shanghai
We are pleased to share the exciting news that on November 17th 2017, our firm, HongFangLaw (HFL) in collaboration with East China University of Political Science and Law (ECUPL) in Shanghai, have announced the sponsorship of a new scholarship program dedicated to the law master education center and to support students focused on the excellence in the field of law studies. This new scholarship will go by the name of “HongFangLaw iMerit Scholarship”.
ECUPL is one of the higher learning institutions of politics and law established by the People’s Republic of China, and also the university jointly administered by the Ministry of Justice and local government, with the local government enjoying the priority of administration. Through the efforts of several generations, ECUPL has gradually developed into a multidisciplinary university of economics, management, finance, foreign languages, etc. with focus on law.
Our scholarship program will last for a decade, from 2017 to 2027, and will focus on supporting up to eight students per year doing their master degree at ECUPL. The total amount set forth by HongFangLaw will be of around 1 million RMB for the duration of these 10 years, and will help relieve students of some of the burden of university costs and reward them for the good work done in their studies every year. The University will be in charge of selecting the merit students and a special commission including professors and some of the partners from HongFangLaw will take part to the yearly assignment ceremony. All eligible applicants are strongly encouraged to apply via the University channels.
HongFangLaw has always focused its attention and business model on the work around Intellectual Property in China, and in finding ways to promote and contribute to the innovation of IP laws for the future. We strongly believe that the future of IP resides in the minds of those who are students right now, in Law Universities around China. We hope that this scholarship will help support some students in focusing more on their studies, and create a better environment for them to apply what they learned in their future employment.
Education is the basis of a strong society.
