The 9th Ningbo International University Students Festival and The 5th UNNC International Education Week

12th April: The 9th Ningbo International University Students Festival and the 5th UNNC International Education Week has begun. Around 200 international students from local universities gathered at UNNC, showcasing and experiencing a variety of cultures.

With the theme of “Integration and Collaboration”, the four sections covering “Literature” “Sports” “Art” and “Practice” aim to build a broader and more diverse cultural communication platform.

Professor Nick Miles, UNNC Provost, gave a welcome speech at the ceremony. “Ningbo is, of course, a globalised port city, and we have students and staff here that hail from all over the world, which brings us to the main themes of this festival – Integration and Collaboration. These capture the significance of cross-border understanding and communication, while respecting and appreciating local cultures and traditions. These themes represent engagement with the international community, taking something new and special from the world before applying it to a local context.”

Weiming Wang, Deputy Director of Ningbo Education Bureau, commented that he was glad to see the Festival gradually develop into a significant brand for an international knowledge exchange for Ningbo education.

Director of Ningbo Municipal Foreign Affairs Office, Rongzhong Ye, mentioned in his speech that Ningbo will continue to provide an open and inclusive platform for international university students to better understand Ningbo.

At the opening ceremony, eight representatives of international students in Ningbo were presented with a certificate of Ningbo Government Scholarship. In the gala that followed, international students from local universities, the UNNC Art Troupe and the dance troupe of the University of Jacksonville gave wonderful art performances.

Co-sponsored by the Municipal Foreign Affairs Office and the Ningbo Education Bureau, and undertaken by University of Nottingham Ningbo China, the event will last for a week, providing opportunities for international students in Ningbo to understand the city better and experience traditional Chinese culture. There will be a variety of activities including enterprise visits, an International Chinese Competition, Touch Rugby Sessions, and the Raw Music Festival. At the closing ceremony on 18th April, the UNNC Symphony Orchestra will present the annual Spring Concert.

Currently, Ningbo has cooperated with more than 1200 universities in 110 countries and regions. The city is home to more than 900 foreign experts and teachers, and more than 4000 international students, over 2280 of which are university students.
