From October 2 to 8, Su Zhiwu with the delegation from CUC (the Communication University of China) visited Egypt s University of Science and Technology and Rhodes University in South Africa and other colleges and universities, which wrapped up with several cooperation agreements.
Currently our school has set up cooperation and exchange relations with a number of foreign universities, but not with those from the Middle East and African countries. This trip is an important pioneering journey.
