China's National Defense University: a case study

摘要

While China's top military institutions have improved both in terms of sophistication and scope, they still face serious problems. Even the NDU, the country's top military institution, has faced problems of poor and inconsistent curriculums and some materiel deficiencies, such as poor libraries and poor audio-visual facilities, particularly those for foreign officer courses. A sign of such a weakness has been the NDU's inability to have its Defense and Strategy Course awarded the level of masters due to resistance from civilian universities over its alleged poor curriculum.
