Cooperation Schemes(UPS)

University – UniversityFoster partnerships

– what partners are we looking for? – what areas of education cooperation are we aiming at?

(focus on science and technology)

– what are the ways to explore and materialize the cooperation possibilities?

(a dialogue taking place right now is one good example of that)

Professor – Professor Undertake joint research activities – Link building

(research workshops, conferences, seminars etc. as platforms for building links)

– Bilateral or multilateral researcher exchange programs

– Incentives for encouraging joint application for Sino-Brazil S&T projects

Students – StudentsDevelop student mobility – Proper promotion to Brazilian students of study in China

– Presenting a variety of study options

(degree programs, non-degree awarding exchange, summer visits etc.)
