    On the November 25, Antony Brown, the dean of Engineering School of University of Manchester, and Professor Wang Zhongdong visited NCEPU. President of NCEPU, Liu Jizhen met the delegation and held talks with them.

    President Liu pointed out that NCEPU has cooperated with University of Manchester for many years. Both sides have achieved fruitful results during this period. They not only co-cultivated a lot of excellent students of “2+2” projects, but also had deep cooperation on teacher training and scientific research. With the increasingly widespread cooperation between China and UK, as the leading university in the field of energy, electric power, and environmental science in China, NCEPU is very willing to cooperate with the high-level universities in UK. Recently, the European Union scientific research project that was applied for by these two universities has further advanced the cooperation in scientific researches. At this stage, as the energy problems are significant around the world, the two universities should make contributions to help solve the problems, and also should ponder problems, make cooperation and seek mutual development from a higher perspective. As with the University of Manchester, NCEPU was also capable with more broader, practical and precise vision. In the process of cooperation, no matter what difficulties will be encountered, as long as seeking consensus on major issues while reserving differences on minor issues, the mutual development will be achieved.
    The dean of Engineering School, Brown said, since University of Manchester is making efforts to develop into the world fist-class university, it is necessary to make prudent decision to choose cooperative partner. While as the outstanding university in the field of energy and power in China, NCEPU conformed to the world strategic target of University of Manchester. Therefore, leaders in University of Manchester expect to promote the cooperation with NCEPU, and propel the cooperation to a higher level.
    After the meeting, Mr. Brown had a friendly communication with the students of International Education Institute.
