     School of Science attaches great importance to the cooperation and exchanges with foreign university on personnel training and scientific research. Nearly 80 well-known foreign university professors visit our college each year, to initiate academic report meetings, lectures and other activities. Each year, the school of science will send out about 15 teachers abroad and carry out academic exchanges, and most of the newly recruited staff have studied or worked abroad for more than one year. At present, the school relied on "outstanding hundred talents program"initiated by the university, and actively launched a new round of high-level college overseas scholars introduction.
    In 2012, our visiting professor Jin Ho Kwak was successfully selected as one of 40 national "Recruitment Program of Foreign Experts" of the first batch. At the same time, through various kinds of foreign experts introduction projects funded by the National, such as overseas famous professors project, The key support plan of introduction of overseas high-level experts, Nobel physiology and medicine laureate, Professor D·C·Gajdusek, American Oakland University professor Yang Lianxiang, National University of Singapore Professor Sun Jie and many other well-known foreign professors were invited for scientific exchange and cooperation. At present, the school hired 5 lecture professors, 1 visiting professors and 1 part-time professor. Teachers are encouraged to cooperate actively with foreign counterparts to initiate multi-level scientific research; so far, the school has won 3 international cooperation projects. The school of science will promote the reputation and influence of related disciplines in the world via organizing various international conferences.
   Attached great importance to creating international teaching atmosphere and absorbing international educational philosophy, School of Science invited experts in mathematics, physics, biology and other fields for giving lessons for undergraduate and graduate students and exchanging teaching experience. The experts come from University of Waterloo of Canada, University of Birmingham of United Kingdom, Western University (University of Western Ontario) of Canada, University of Manitoba of Canada, University of Maryland of United States, McMaster University of Canada and other world-class universities. International teaching activities expand students’ international vision and improve teachers teaching level.
