On June 22, 2016 a business meeting with a municipal delegation of Ningbo (China) was held in the meeting hall of NAU administration. In March the Acting Rector of the National Aviation University Volodymyr Kharchenko met with Vanbo, a representative of the Technological University of the city, who studied at NAU. At that time Volodymyr Petrovych presented Vanbo a certificate that gave him the authority to represent the National Aviation University in China in two areas: science (new technologies) and recruitment of students.

The recent meeting at which Vanbo served as an interpreter has testified that, firstly, he copes with this work, and, secondly, the city government has expressed interest in cooperation with NAU. At the meeting of Volodymyr Kharchenko with the Chinese delegation there were also representatives of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, since the next Chinese municipal delegation is going to come to National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

At the meeting Volodymyr Petrovych stressed that NAU is one of the leading universities not only in Ukraine but also in the world of aviation training. Moreover, the University trains specialists in all areas; training of 14 specialties is conducted in English, giving the graduates the opportunity to find any job anywhere in the world. Nowadays, NAU trains 1000 specialists for 45 countries. The University has a number of facilities to carry out scientific research. Among the leading areas the Acting Rector Volodymyr Kharchenko named the production of UAVs (drones), the development of space technologies and systems. For elaborating these projects, the university has at its disposal a design bureau “Virage” and an Aerospace Center of Satellite Technology. Besides, the university has a number of research papers and projects with foreign partners.

The representative of the Chinese side provided information about the city of Ningbo. The city is continuously inhabited by about 6 million people and is visited by 3-4 million people. Thanks to international trade, last year the city implemented sales worth $100 billion and it is interesting that about 25% of Chinese toys have been produced here. Rapid business life of the city needs improvement and expansion of transport communications, including air facilities. Hence, the interest of the city to cooperate with NAU is quite understandable, which was particularly highlighted by the Chinese attitude. Noting that every member of the delegation has more than one child, they said that they would advise their children to study in such a prestigious university as the National Aviation University.

The Chinese side invited the Acting Rector of the National Aviation University Volodymyr Kharchenko to visit the city of Ningbo at any convenient time. In conclusion, the parties exchanged gifts and souvenirs. The extensive program of the Chinese delegation included a visit to the laboratories of NAU, our museum, the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra and so on.

Meeting with a municipal delegation of Chinese city Ningbo

Sometimes, the first meeting showing a desire for cooperation is the last one. Judging from the development of relationships between NAU and the Chinese city of Ningbo, the cooperation with this partner is encouraging and is sure to be really prospective. It is desirable, we believe, for both sides.
