Congress Probes NYU Shanghai's Connection to Chinese Communist Party

House of Representatives committees have identified NYU Shanghai as a national security threat, alleging it advances the Chinese Communist Party's military and technological agenda.

A September report reviewed claims that joint U.S.-China academic institutes, including NYU Shanghai, are exploited by the Chinese government to strengthen its military.

These committees claimed that after accepting major funding from the Chinese government, U.S. institutions compromised on academic freedom, speech, and governance.

The report marks the second consecutive year NYU Shanghai has been named a national security threat.
