In December 2020, the Chinese Traditional Handicraft Aesthetic Education Month events organized by the Graduate Studies Office, College of International Exchange, and College of Arts, were held in the international students’ activity room. This series of activities were held to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of our university and served as a cultural exchange bridge between Chinese and international students.
