From January 22 to March 3, 92 students from 21 schools of Beihang University and 4 colleges of Beihang School respectively participated in three winter vacation exchange programs in partner universities, Ural Federal University and Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.

The winter vacation exchange program of the Ural Federal University was divided into specialized courses and Russian language courses. As for specialized courses, 45 students took courses of “Business Start in Russia”, “Study like a Russian”, “Mechanical Engineering”, and “Material Science”. With regard to Russian learning courses, 26 students selected the Russian language course with a theme of "Russian Fresh". In addition, 21 students participated in the three modules named "Electrical Engineering", "Nuclear Engineering", and "Turbomachinery" in Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. The sponsors of the project organized activities such as lectures, experiments, seminars, field research, reports and cultural visits, which enabled our students to fully experience the solid teaching skills and fascinating culture of Russian universities.
 

In recent years, more than 220 students have participated in various exchange programs in Russian partner universities through Yuanhang Exchange Projects. The foreign hosts from partner universities recognized their excellent academic performance and outstanding international communication skills. This has strengthened the foundation of youth communications between China and Russia, and has become a lively practice of “People-to-People Connectivity” of the Belt and Road Initiative. Beihang will continue to meticulously organize related exchange activities and groom more "successors" of China-Russia friendship.
