During the meeting, the parties discussed prospects for long-term cooperation in vocational and higher education. Particular attention was paid to opportunities for college graduates to continue their studies in EKTU bachelor’s degree programmes, the alignment of educational programmes and the transfer of academic credits.
The cooperation is expected to cover automation and equipment manufacturing, transport engineering, information technology, construction, medical engineering, economics and management. The parties also expressed interest in exchanging educational resources, developing teaching materials and promoting academic mobility for students and faculty members.
Following the meeting, the parties signed a Memorandum of Understanding and a Cooperation Agreement. The documents provide for the exchange of curricula and syllabi, the establishment of a joint working group and the development of coordinated educational pathways.
As part of the visit, the Chinese delegation toured EKTU’s teaching and research laboratories, specialised educational centres and the Lu Ban Workshop.
The meeting marked an important step in strengthening the partnership between the two institutions and laid the foundation for joint educational projects.
