This study examines the effectiveness of Transnational Education (TNE) in the field of architectural education, with a focus on the Sino-British collaboration between Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU). It explores how advanced digital design and visualization tools, AI, and digital fabrication have been integrated into the curriculum and the opportunities and challenges that TNE presents in creating a global educational setting. The study uses the UK Professional Standard Framework (UKPSF) and analyzes three case studies of digital-supported projects to understand how TNE manages the complexities of cross-cultural and geographical education delivery. The findings suggest that while TNE at XJTLU provides access to global architectural practices and innovations, it also faces challenges related to cultural integration and pedagogical adaptation. The research provides a framework to understand the role of digital technology in TNE architectural programs and suggests strategies for cross-border educational partnerships, contributing to the dialogue on enhancing TNE for worldwide architectural education.
