A delegation from the University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB) visited NUST MISIS to discuss areas of cooperation in the scientific and educational spheres, including joint research, academic mobility, and the development of innovative materials.
Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs Andrey Voronin presented the achievements and projects of NUST MISIS to the guests. The visitors noted the high level of scientific infrastructure and the university’s readiness for open and productive collaboration. Both sides expressed confidence that their joint efforts would yield significant results for both institutions and the international scientific community.
NUST MISIS played a key role in the establishment of USTB in 1952. At that time, USTB was originally called the “Beijing Institute of Iron and Steel Technology”. In 2016, an agreement on scientific and educational cooperation was signed with USTB, which included the implementation of joint research projects and the organization of student exchanges. In 2018, an additional agreement was signed concerning undergraduate student exchange, which enabled continuous recruitment of students into English-language master’s programs. NUST MISIS has also developed cooperation with Chinese universities as part of the “Time to Study in Russia!” initiative, aimed at attracting students from China.
