On the afternoon of September 6th, the tenth joint training programme for overseas undergraduates majoring in Chinese between Kunming University of Science and Technology (KUST) and Ubon Rajathanee University (UBU) was held as scheduled. Teachers from the School of International Education (SIE) at KUST and UBU, as well as the 26 UBU undergraduate students majoring in Chinese attended the opening ceremony. The 26 Thai students will study Chinese for one year at the Chenggong Campus of KUST.
At the opening ceremony, the head of SIE welcomed the arrival of the 26 Thai students, hoping that both sides could continuously deepen cooperation and make greater achievements in teaching, scientific research, talent cultivation and other aspects, and gave a detailed explanation of the teaching plan and arrangement of the programme.
