According to the File No. 48, 2013 publicized recently by Department of Higher Education, MOE, China, two HUST’s engineering practice and education centers jointly built with Jiamusi Electric Machine Co., LTD and Avic Harbin Dongan Engine (Group) Co., LTD individually, were approved as state-leveled undergraduates’ off-campus internship bases supported by “National Undergraduate Cultivating Program”.

There are altogether 538 state-leveled undergraduates’ off-campus internship bases for local affiliated colleges and universities, including 23 ones for 15 provincial affiliated colleges and universities in Heilongjiang were approved by MOE, which aims at the construction of a new talent cultivation system among colleges, universities, enterprises, research institutions, government agencies and other work places for all walks of life in society.

HUST has tried to seekuniversity-enterprisecooperationfor many years and began to apply for off-campus internship bases construction projects from the end of 2012, under the leadership of Meng Dawei, deputy president in charge of HUST’s teaching affairs. 4 of the 5 internship bases we applied were approved by the Education Department of Heilongjiang as province-leveled off-campus internship bases up to now.

With the approval of the two state-leveled undergraduates’ off-campus internship bases, HUST’s educational reform and teaching innovation have reached a new stage. It should be another important and proud-worthy benchmark after we ranked among MOE’s Outstanding Engineers Education Program implementing universities (2011) and won six state-leveled engineering practice & education centers (2012).
