Welcome

It is my great pleasure to introduce you to the Center for China-US Cooperation (CCUSC). Founded in early 1998 by the University of Denver's Graduate School of International Studies (GSIS), the CCUSC has been strategic in educating people in the Rocky Mountain region about Greater China, including the Mainland, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

Our mission is to serve as a bridge in a search for mutual understanding, the development of prudent policies, and the positive resolution of disputes between Chinese people and American people. The CCUSC fills a gap that exists in the Rocky Mountain region and between the two coasts in facilitating understanding of the changes in the political, economic, legal, social, and cultural landscape of China.

Our web site highlights our programs and activities. I would love to hear from you and sincerely hope that you will be part of our endeavor.
