Vice President Guo Xueyi, and main leaders from the Office of International Cooperation and Exchanges, School of Metallurgy and Environment and School of International Education attended the meeting.

During the meeting with ITB, Guo Xueyi, on behalf of CSU, proposed future cooperation in areas such as talent cultivation and collaborative scientific research, so as to support the China-Indonesia “Hundred, Thousand and Ten Thousand Talents Project”. Suprijadi believed that the two universities are highly similar in academic settings and educational objectives. He wishes that the two universities can expand cooperation in areas such as joint education of postgraduate students and collaborative scientific research by relying on the “China-Indonesia Joint Research Laboratory of New Energy Materials and Metallurgical Engineering Technology” that has already been set up.

During the meeting with UI, the two sides exchanged specific opinions on future cooperation in areas such as joint education of dual degree programs, faculty and student exchanges, and collaborative scientific research.

During the visit, representatives of the Indonesian universities visited the Chinese National Engineering Research Center for Control & Treatment of Heavy Metal Pollution, exchanged views with Indonesian students from CSU, and held academic presentations.

In recent years, CSU has carried out increasingly close educational exchanges and cooperation with Indonesia, including the launch of the “university-government-enterprise” three-party joint metallurgical engineering master training program developed by CSU, Indonesia Coordinating Ministry for Maritime and Investment Affairs and GEM Co., Ltd., and the joint construction of “China-Indonesia Joint Research Laboratory of New Energy Materials and Metallurgical Engineering Technology” with ITB and GEM, and contributed to the Belt and Road Initiative in terms of talent cultivation and scientific research cooperation.
