China is actively courting international students from world-class universities to study in the country on a short-term basis, believing that international educational exchange will cultivate greater knowledge of and friendliness toward China. The majority of domestic studies on short-term study abroad programs in China have been conducted at the macro-level. In contrast, this study adopts the perspective of local cooperative institutions asso[ciated with U.S. study](ciated with U.S. study) abroad programs in China. Adopting a multilevel and multiperspective approach, this study observes and analyzes the actual operations of a U.S. study abroad program in China and its development life cycle. In doing so, this study explores the practical mechanism behind U.S. students’ overseas education in China, as well as the macro-environment affecting program development. Examining the operational mechanism and logical framework underlying the program, this study provides policy recommendations to promote the overseas study and exchange of U.S. students in China.  \nSachau et al.
