Recently, the National Center for Educational Technology (NCET) unveiled the first batch of projects for virtual simulation teaching innovation laboratories across higher education institutions nationwide. The College of Energy (College of Modern Shale Gas Industry), the College of Nuclear Technology and Automation Engineering, and the Business School of CDUT have secured spots for three projects: the "Deep Earth Intelligence Virtual Simulation Laboratory," the "Virtual Simulation Teaching Laboratory for Electrical Equipment Fundamentals and Structures," and the "Virtual Simulation Laboratory for Economic Management." All three projects have successfully made it through the selection process.

This approval serves as a resounding endorsement of CDUT's commitment to virtual simulation in experimental teaching, signaling significant its strides in seamlessly integrating digital technology with practical learning and the establishment of innovative virtual simulation teaching labs. Leveraging this milestone, CDUT will embark on an ambitious journey of theoretical exploration and practical implementation centered around the construction and utilization of virtual simulation teaching labs. CDUT aims to refine the virtual learning environment, elevate the innovative application of virtual simulation teaching, and furnish students with top-tier educational resources and immersive learning experiences. In tandem with bolstering the university's digital teaching reforms, CDUT will expedite the establishment of a premier talent cultivation framework, and continually upgrade the caliber of its graduates.
