100 Wirless Campuses Across China
Six universities in Guo Zhou, (Guang Dong Province, China) just launched the first city wide wireless campus network this month. This project is a part of the bigger initiative - 100 university campuses over entire China launch wireless networks by the end of the year 2005. This project is initiated by China Education and Research Network and partially financed by Bank of Beijing, Shanghai PuDong Development Bank and several other financial organizations. This project also involves providing 50,000 specially designed (efficient and highly mobile) laptop computers to all universities across China at fairly low price. The banks will provide mortgage plans to help the institutions and students to finance the purchases.
The initiative is targeting for establishing 500 wireless post-secondary campuses across China by the end of the year 2007.
