A Wuhan University Delegation, headed by Party secretary Han Jin, visited six universities in UK and Ireland and held discussion with counterparts of these universities.

During the visit to Ireland, WHU delegation held a round-table meeting for WHU-Ireland International Strategic Cooperation Program, which is sponsored by the Ireland Science Foundation. It aims to encourage scientific cooperation between its members(namely  the National University of Ireland Maynooth, Royal College of Surgeons, Dublin City University, Dublin Institute of Technology and University of Dublin Trinity College) and Chinese universities and institutes in areas of bioscience, information and communication, and nanotechnology. The WHU delegation also attended the one year anniversary of the founding of the Confucius Institute at the University of Aberdeen. The Confucius Institute is the channel for the outside world to know more about China.

The WHU delegation signed a series of agreements to consolidate and expand cooperative relations between Wuhan University and overseas universities, offering more opportunities for WHU students to study abroad and laying a solid foundation for further development of strategic partnerships between Wuhan University and its partners in UK and Ireland.

Besides, WHU delegation took this opportunity to learn about the education system, teaching, scientific research, quality assurance, internationalization, strategic planning and other issues in the UK and Ireland, which will help enhance awareness of international education and strengthen internatioalization at Wuhan University.
