Forums > Study > research in China today i finally got an answer from the Yunnan Normal University. Fun fact, they recommended me to contact the Pu'er University, because they think Yunnan Normal University ist too far away from the place I want to do fieldwork (around 5 hour with the bus), but they are happy that I want to do research in Yunnan. So, it´s the same as before, but having an answer after sending more than 40 mails (only two to Yunnan Normal University) already makes me relieved that someone read it.
Forums > Study > research in China thank you for your answer @cloudtrapezer!
Forums > Study > research in China I already lived in yunnan for one year, close to pu‘er, and I was a volunteer for English teaching and we also had volunteers in pu‘er. So I already know the schools and a bit of the background. I think pu‘er is very interesting and I want to focus not on a „big“ city, also I want to consider if i can expand my fieldwork at schools in the countryside, but i would decide this during fieldwork
Forums > Study > research in China @michael2015 I have a contact at the Pu'er University and she already talked to her department and with the headmaster. For this year they have a strict examination system to follow, so they would reject every foreigner. They really wanted to help me (and I would pay the tuition fee) but for this year there is no chance, sadly.
Forums > Study > research in China @michael2015 i Never Said in any of my words that I expect that the university pays for my stay. And I wouldn’t dare to expect that :)
