The delegation visited the Global Village, library and the International Exchange Center. They agree with HQUFL’s education philosophy and application-orientated talent training policy and spoke highly of the teaching environment created for students’ practice in the Global Village. The visit was followed by talks on education cooperation. Mr. Miura was deeply impressed by the beautiful campus and the distinctive teaching facilities in the Global Village and the International Exchange Center. His observation of the classes in the Global Village further deepened his understanding of HQUFL’s talent training mode. He hopes that he may have opportunities to learn Chinese in HQUFL in the near future.

Sun Tieqi, deputy chief of the delegation and chairman of the Japanese Health and Welfare Association (JHWA), said that 2018 marked the 40th anniversary of the Sino-Japanese Treaty of Peace and Friendship and Sino-Japanese relations could keep on improving and be better off through widespread person-to-person communication. JHWA would like to create opportunities for Chinese college students for their further study in Japan and to give particularly free offers to Chinese college students majoring in Japanese for their observation of Japanese medical care and nursing industry.

This visit will play an important role in promoting communication and understanding between HQUFL and Japanese industry groups and innovations to the training mode of Japanese majors at HQUFL as well.
