Of the core faculty, 51% have overseas study and training experience at universities such as Columbia, University of Illinois, Queens, The University of Texas at Dallas, Macquarie University, Rutgers University, Hong Kong Baptist University, City University of New York (CUNY) and Nanyang Technological University. The “post-doctorate faculty system” and “sustainable overseas faculty plan”[1] ensure that more new faculty will join SOA. In addition, SOA has also set up a process to systematically invite internationally renowned experts as visiting professors, visiting researchers, and short-term visiting lecturers. In addition to the 111 full-time and part-time faculty members, there are 60 administrative staff members, including 33 full-time and 27 part-time employees.
