On the afternoon of Oct. 27th, a signing ceremony was held between Arnhem Business School of Han University, the Netherlands and International Business School of SIFT. John P. Rijpma (Msc), Project Director of Arnhem Business School, and Nie Qing, Dean of SIFT s International Business School, signed the Memorandum of Cooperation, which marked that the cooperation between the two sides had stepped into a new stage.
The signing of the memorandum was an important achievement of the cooperation. It was also significant to further promote communication between teachers and students of both sides, and to raise the level of sharing teaching and research resources. According to the agreement, SIFT would start to select three students to Han University for a three-month study from the next year.
In the past few years, the delegations of Arnhem Business School have visited SIFT for three times. They enhanced mutual exchange of study and opened up students' horizon with lectures, academic discussions and friendship-building activities among teachers and students of both schools. Through discussions on particular themes such as the management of exchange students, the two sides reached the consensus to strengthen cooperation and communication.
