This autumn of 2019 is a period of rapid growth for international students in our college in that the number of Chinese classes is expanded to nearly 10, and the number of students in each class is fully saturated. Through one semester of Chinese course learning, international students have improved their Chinese level, obtaining certain Chinese knowledge, as well as realizing the extensive and profound Chinese culture through colorful cultural activities.

As for the rules and regulations of the College, the implementation of The Regulations on the Administration of International Students in East China University of Science Technology at the beginning of this semester effectively regulated and promoted the attendance and learning of international students. A total of 12 students won the “Perfect Attendance Award” whose attendance rate in class all reached 100%, setting an example for international students.
