The 8th Ningbo International University Students Festival themed “Friendship, Exchange and Progress” opened on June 25, attracting about 200 foreign students and some international students in Ningbo.
Certificates of scholarship were awarded to 10 international student representatives by organizers of this event in the opening. In order to attract more international students, scholarship programs funded by the government for international students were initiated in 2011, providing scholarships ranging from 6000 yuan to 30,000 yuan. So far, as many as 1914 international students studying in Ningbo have won scholarships which boost the development of education for international students in Ningbo.
This year’s Ningbo International University Students Festival will last 4 days. During this event, foreign students will not only experience traditional Chinese culture but will also visit places including furniture manufacturer FOTILE in Ningbo-Hangzhou Bay New Zone and exhibition hall of urban planning in Hangzhou Bay New Area. Such friendly exchanges will enable them to have a better idea of Ningbo and broader China. Meanwhile, they will, at the invitation of some Ningbo universities and colleges, participate in various activities of cultural exchange. The closing ceremony of this festival will be held in Ningbo
