USTB's International Office Bridges the Gap with African Students

On April 8^th, the International Office of USTB hosted a meeting with international students from Congo, Tanzania, and South Africa.

Prof. Wang Ge, Director of the International Office, attended the meeting and answered questions raised by students. Prof. Zhao Liying, Vice-Director of the International Office chaired the meeting, joined by the staff members of the International Office.

At the meeting, Prof. Zhao spoke about China’s friendly relationship with the three countries and mentioned that Mr. Xi Jinping, Party Secretary of the People’s Republic of China, had recently paid a friendly visit to these nations. It was Prof. Zhao’s wish that the students would seize their opportunity to strengthen the already friendly relationship between China and their home countries.

The discussion continued on a congenial note. Approximately 20 international students spoke glowingly of their living and learning experiences at USTB. The students then put forward some concerns about life at USTB. Staff members from the International Students Office offered detailed answers to their questions. Students also took this chance to contribute suggestions on the educational policies, management, and talent cultivation strategies for future international students at USTB.

Meetings like this are great opportunities for the International Students Office to talk to students and understand their needs and concerns. The event also served as a great chance to improve the management and services offered by the International Office. More meetings of this kind are planned for the near future.
