On the afternoon of May 14, a four-member delegation from Hamburg Conservatory, led by its Director Michael Petermann and Anke Nickel, visited USX. Vice President Hu Yunjin, Linghu Wensheng, Director of the International Office, and Tong Shiliu, Dean of Cai Yuanpei College of Art and Design, attended the meeting with relevant staff.

Hu and Petermann introduced the history, academic programs, and international cooperation of their respective institutions and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on friendly cooperation. The two sides then discussed semester exchange and summer short-term programs and reached a consensus on mutual credit recognition, curriculum alignment, and cultural exchanges.

The guests toured the new art complex and Yueming Music Building of Cai Yuanpei College of Art and Design to see the teaching and student training facilities. Both sides agreed that the two institutions are highly aligned in educational philosophy and academic programs, with broad prospects for future cooperation.
