The Confucius Institute at UC Davis is a partnership between UC Davis, Jiangnan University and Hanban, an administrative arm of the Ministry of Education in China.

The mission of the Confucius Institute is to draw upon the food and beverage science and technology strengths of both partner institutions to promote the understanding of Chinese food and beverage culture through facilitating instruction, both in the classroom and beyond. The Institute will also be a valuable platform for communication between the food and wine industries of California and China.
