The priority for both parties is the possibility of establishing a cooperation in the area of education and research between our universities in the areas such as Power and Aerospace Engineering, Materials Engineering and Robotics. It was provisionally established that a joint Science Conference allowing to get aquainted with the scientific and educational potental of our chinese partners will be held in spring. Summer schools and joint study programmes (B.Sc. studies 2+2 and M.Sc. studies 1+1) are also in the area of interest for both parties.
