Cihan University-Erbil Dispatches Academic and Administrative Teams to China to Benefit from Chinese Developing Experience
As a new step, under China’s National Education Program in Iraq, Cihan University-Erbil has teamed up with the Chinese Consulate in the Kurdistan Region to highlight China’s progress for developing nations. Over the past months, three delegations from Cihan University and its related institutions have traveled to China. Both sides have agreed to continue these exchanges in the future.
The delegated team of Cihan University-Erbil—including professors, administrative staff, accountants, and managers joined this new Chinese bilateral education program in Iraq. During their month-long stay in China, they took part in conferences, hands-on workshops, training courses, and scientific exchange sessions organized by top Chinese universities and research centers. Throughout these activities, the Cihan teams focused on learning China’s strategies for success in education, research, and national development. They studied how China achieved rapid progress in fields like science, technology, education, and infrastructure. By exploring real-world case studies and best practices, the delegates gained fresh insights into the steps and policies that drive a country forward. This firsthand experience helped Cihan University-Erbil’s staff understand both the level of development China has reached and the paths other developing nations can follow to achieve similar success.
Upon completing their courses, Cihan University-Erbil’s professors, researchers, and staff not only presented the university’s emblem to various Chinese institutions but also received certificates of participation. During their journey, they visited several research centers and saw firsthand and high level of development in China. They also toured a number of cultural, historical, and tourist sites. This exchange not only enhances the academic and professional skills of Cihan University Erbil’s team but also builds a strong foundation for long-term academic cooperation between Chinese institutions and Cihan University-Erbil.
