From June 5th to 8th, Zeng Ying, member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and Vice President of CDUT, led a delegation to Morocco. The delegation visited Hassan II University of Casablanca (UH2C, Université Hassan Ii De Casablanca) and the National School of Mines of Rabat (ENSMR, Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Rabat) to foster educational exchanges. This visit, part of the Sichuan Higher Education Delegation, was a key initiative to implement the open development strategy of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Sichuan Provincial Government, aimed at enhancing friendly exchanges and practical cooperation between Sichuan and Morocco in higher education.
On June 6th, Zeng Ying and the delegation conducted a thorough inspection of the teaching and research facilities at UH2C. In a detailed discussion with Professor Mustafa, the Vice President of UH2C, they explored CDUT’s specialized programs, discipline development, and talent cultivation. They reached several agreements on joint talent training, international Chinese education, faculty and student exchanges, and research collaboration.
