Svetlana Golovina and Li Zhentao sign a memorandum
On October 13, the Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering and Shandong Jiaotong University (China) signed a memorandum of understanding.
Shandong Jiaotong University (SJTU), founded in 1956, is located in Jinan, Shandong Province. It specializes in educational programs in transportation fields, including transport infrastructure construction, integrated transportation, and vehicle design and production. The university maintains extensive academic and research collaborations with Russian universities: it established an international educational platform, the Don Institute, jointly with the Don State Technical University (Rostov-on-Don), and the Russian-Chinese Institute of Transport Education was established jointly with the Irkutsk State Transport University. Representatives of the Chinese university have also expressed great interest in establishing a partnership with St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (SPbGASU).
First Vice-Rector Svetlana Golovina emphasized that SPbGASU traditionally places great emphasis on implementing scientific and educational projects with Chinese universities. Our university has cooperation agreements with five Chinese universities. Currently, 80 students from the People's Republic of China are studying at SPbGASU, including 18 graduate students.
The preparatory department's Russian language programs are in high demand. For several years, the university has been offering a supplementary Chinese language program for students. The Conversation Club is also active.
Li Zhentao, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Shandong Jiaotong University, recalled the first visit of his university's delegation to SPbGASU in August 2024 and outlined the goals of the new meeting: to establish official partnerships, intensify academic exchanges between students, and promote the development of educational and research contacts.
After signing the memorandum, the parties discussed forms of future cooperation.
