Despite the dispute on whether the impacts of globalization and intationalization on the development of economy, society, culture and education are true, the fact we cannot deny is that neoliberalism and marketization have impose a great trans?formation on our daily lives (Mok, 2010). China, as one of the powerful countries in the world, is inevitable to be involved in this trend. While confronting the changes in higher education in mainland China brought by neoliberalism, I intend to propose a question: Does Neoliberalist-based intationalized higher education function in Chinese context? In line with my research question, this article attempts to examine the validity of neoliberalism through a case study of University of Nottingham Ningbo China. The next section is a theoretical approach, and then is a case study. In conclusion, this article indicates that the function of neoliberalism, especially in the higher education in mainland China, is still way off.
