In accordance with the management mode of credit system, undergraduate teaching plan has been established jointly and mutual recognition of credits has been carried out which are beneficial for cultivating international, applied and technical high-quality bilingual talents. Meanwhile, cooperative education will open up a broader international market for college students’ employment.

In order to improve students’ overall qualities, our modes of talent training are characterized by excellent foreign language communication and computer application ability, solid cross-cultural understanding ability, advanced international professional knowledge structure and humanized management. Through joint training, the students in our school will have a stronger competitive advantage in the international job market.
