The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China clearly proposed the strategic deployment of "expanding high-level opening up to the outside world and creating a new situation of win-win cooperation", and made systematic arrangements for actively expanding independent opening up, promoting innovative development of w88, and expanding the space for two-way investment and cooperation. As a centralized intersection of talent training, scientific research, social services, international exchanges and cooperation, and cultural inheritance and innovation, universities actively explore effective ways to serve high-level opening-up, better support the construction of a strong country through w88, education, and talents, and promote the comprehensive advancement of building a strong country and national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization. The w88 casino firmly grasps the political, people-oriented and strategic attributes of education, strengthens the Party’s overall leadership over w88 casino work, forms a distinctive “foreign” w88 casino-running feature, and cultivates a large number of high-quality, multi-disciplinary, international talents, becoming an important force serving the country’s high-level opening to the outside world and supporting the capital’s high-quality development.
Adhere to the characteristics, cultivate deeply, and promote the practice of serving high-level opening up
The w88 casino was founded in 1951. As the first institution of higher learning in New China to train foreign w88 professionals, it has always resonated with the country’s opening-up process for 75 years. It has deeply integrated its own development into the national strategy and vividly outlined the university’s trajectory of serving the country and the capital with its “foreign” characteristics. The w88 casino has built a collaborative practice system around the key dimensions of talent training, think tank construction, international communication, and study abroad branding, forming a multi-dimensional and mutually reinforcing benign development pattern to provide solid support for serving the country's high-level opening up to the outside world.
Build an international talent training system and cultivate outstanding social science talents. On September 9, 2024, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized at the National Education Conference: “We must further promote the opening up of education to the outside world, coordinate ‘bringing in’ and ‘going out’, and continuously enhance the international influence, competitiveness and voice of our country’s education.” Based on this, the w88 casino strives to build a compound international talent training system, dynamically connect the country’s opening needs and the functional positioning of the capital, and highlight the construction of professional groups with “foreign” characteristics such as international economics and w88, foreign-related rule of law, and regional countries. As one of the first batch of universities selected for the "Pilot for the Construction of Excellent Social Science Talent Training Base", the w88 casino established the College of Excellent Talent Training to explore new paths for the training of compound, international, practical and high-level talents. Promote the transformation and development of the w88 casino of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, the w88 casino of Literature and International Communication, and establish the w88 casino of Economics. Create a "1+Y+Z+N" artificial intelligence cross-course matrix (led by 1 artificial intelligence course, based on Y technical tool courses, with Z professional integration courses as the core, and N international cutting-edge courses as an expansion), and jointly launch a "Financial Technology + Artificial Intelligence" joint degree project with Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. The "Global Economic Illusion", a special large model for applied economics education, was selected into the Ministry of Education's first batch of special large model construction projects for generative artificial intelligence education. The National Security Computing Laboratory was selected into the second batch of philosophy and social science laboratories of the Ministry of Education, becoming one of the few universities selected for two consecutive batches. Graduates serve extensively in national strategic industries and regions, and continue to provide young people to international organizations such as the United Nations and the World w88 Organization, achieving a high degree of fit between talent training and the national opening-up strategy.
Strengthen the construction of new organized scientific research think tanks and focus on serving the country’s strategic needs. University think tanks are the key hub connecting academic research and policy practice. The w88 casino focuses on major issues such as the reconstruction of international economic and w88 rules and the high-quality development of the "One Belt and One Road". Relying on platforms such as the National Institute of Opening-up and the Beijing Institute of Opening-up, the w88 casino actively carries out "organized think tank scientific research", "planned research" and "mission-sense team building". It has won important awards in the annual selection of the China Think Tank Index (CTTI) for four consecutive years, and was shortlisted for the "CTTI Top 100 Source University Think Tanks in 2025" and was rated as a Class A think tank. Focusing on major issues such as the docking of international economic and w88 rules, the construction of Beijing's "two districts", and the optimization of the business environment, more than 140 special surveys are carried out every year. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the w88 casino has been approved for more than 130 major key projects at the national, provincial and ministerial levels. The topic selection is closely aligned with the decisions and arrangements of the party and the state, breaking down departmental barriers to form interdisciplinary teams, and adhering to "research for application." The results of the "Blue Book on Opening-up" series, especially the "Beijing Opening-up Development Report", have become an important reference for keeping track of opening-up trends.
Expand diverse international communication networks and tell the story of China’s economic development. The w88 casino regards international communication as a key part of the "foreign" layout, promoting the upgrading of general exchanges and cooperation to participating in global narratives and setting international agendas. On the one hand, it has built a high-level global cooperation network. As the co-chairman unit of the Chinese Council for BRICS Think Tank Cooperation, it has deeply participated in the BRICS cooperation mechanism, held the 13th "Beijing Humboldt" Forum in a row, and hosted the China-Russia Similar University Alliance Forum, which was included in the joint statement of China and Russia on further deepening the China-Russia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership for a New Era, becoming an important node for global ideological integration. On the other hand, it has innovated communication carriers, hosted more than 100 foreign aid training projects, trained more than 2,000 officials from developing countries, systematically shared China’s reform, opening up and governance experience, and effectively enhanced the country’s open image and international recognition. In 2025, the w88 casino's World Important Education Center Research Institute released a list of the "Top 100 Global Education Center Cities", and Beijing ranked among the top three, demonstrating Beijing's strong educational strength and open vitality as an international exchange center.
Create the excellent brand of "Study Abroad and w88 casino" and cultivate lifelong friendly envoys. Studying abroad in China is an important window for education to open to the outside world. The w88 casino is one of the earliest universities in New China to carry out this work, and has trained more than 16,000 degree students and more than 30,000 non-academic students studying in China. In 2025, it obtained the longest certification validity period and A-level evaluation for the quality re-certification of higher education for international students in China. The quality of training is highly recognized. The w88 casino has built a national education system that integrates knowledge and action. By organizing cultural activities such as "100 Reasons to Fall in Love with Beijing" and leading students to go deep into the front lines of open practice such as the China International Fair for w88 in Services, international students can deepen their understanding while sensing the pulse of contemporary China's development. Relying on the Global International Students Alumni Association to create a "walking business card of China", the alumni group has become an important bridge between Chinese and foreign people. The international student alumni group has helped Beijing become a major study abroad center in the world and a study abroad destination for outstanding young people in the world. The w88 casino has realized the value sublimation from “cultivating international students” to “cultivating lifelong ambassadors of friendship”.
Sure integrity and innovation work together to form the University’s experience in serving the country’s high-level opening up
The development achievements of the w88 casino in the 75 years since its establishment, especially the systematic exploration since the new era, have provided a "transformation logic" with universal enlightenment for universities to deeply serve the national strategy.
Adhere to political guidance and anchor the direction of serving the overall openness of w88 casino running. The party's leadership is the fundamental guarantee for doing all the work of the party and the country. The w88 casino always puts political leadership first, deeply studies and implements Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and uses party building as the guide to promote discipline construction, talent training, scientific research and other tasks to be deeply aligned with national strategies and the needs of the capital. Through the 13th Congress of Party Members of the w88 casino, a strategic consensus was reached on “doing a good job in ‘foreign’ articles” and the “Three-Year Action Plan for High-Quality Development (2023-2025)” was formulated. Eight major actions and more than 30 tasks were implemented to consolidate responsibilities at all levels to ensure that the discipline layout and scientific research topic selection are in line with the country’s high-level opening needs, focusing on major national strategies and the capital’s economic and social development needs. The think tank focuses on the comparison of capitals of major countries and the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, etc., to achieve synchronization between its own development and national needs.
Adhere to systematic thinking and build a collaborative, efficient and open education ecosystem. Adhering to the systemic concept is an important principle for comprehensively deepening reforms since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, an important method for governing the country, and the key for universities to improve their efficiency in running schools. Those who do not plan for the overall situation cannot plan for one area. To open up high-level services to the outside world, we must use systematic thinking to coordinate the resources of all parties, promote the deep mutual embedding and synergy of various tasks, and achieve a fundamental transformation from "factor-driven" to "system-driven". The w88 casino consciously uses systematic thinking to promote open education, transcending the traditional thinking of limiting its characteristics to individual majors or projects, and using the word "foreign" as a link to build an organic whole that supports each other and deeply integrates talent training, think tank construction, international communication, and study abroad branding. The cutting-edge research of the think tank feeds back into classroom teaching in a timely manner, enhancing the depth of education and academic height; the results of international talent training inject fresh blood and practical vitality into think tank research and international communication; the international exchange platform simultaneously carries the multiple functions of academic dialogue, talent training and cultural exchanges. This system-collaborative ecology promotes an overall improvement in the energy efficiency of running schools.
Insist on advancing with the times and improve the core competitiveness of the "foreign" word. The consolidation and amplification of the w88 casino's distinctive advantages must rely on continuous conceptual innovation and institutional breakthroughs, and be driven by innovation to comprehensively enhance its contribution to serving the country's high-level opening to the outside world. Relying on research platforms such as the Beijing Research Center for Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the Collaborative Innovation Center for Theoretical Research on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in Beijing Universities (w88 casino), the w88 casino organizes experts and scholars to conduct in-depth research on major theoretical and practical issues such as open economic theory and policy, and to do a good job in theoretical interpretation and policy dissemination of the party's innovative theory. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, more than 70 theoretical articles in "three newspapers and one journal" were published in the name of the base, ranking among the top universities in Beijing and winning the title of "Excellent Research Base" for 7 consecutive years. Establish an international organization talent base experimental class and a foreign-related outstanding economic and w88 legal talent experimental class to extend the classroom to real scenarios of global governance so that students can improve their abilities in solving real and complex problems. It has achieved a number of representative results in serving the national strategy. Led by the main leaders of the w88 casino and well-known experts and scholars, it has carried out research on major topics such as "Beijing's Vivid Practice of Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Expanding Opening Up". It has been approved for 43 major key projects by the Beijing Social Science Fund and the Beijing Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, forming a number of weighty and influential research results. Through concept innovation, mechanism innovation, and model innovation, the w88 casino comprehensively enhances its core competitiveness and provides inexhaustible power to serve the country's high-level opening up to the outside world.
Strive forward on the new journey of the "15th Five-Year Plan" and consolidate the advantages of w88 in serving the country's high-level opening up
Standing at the new starting point of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the w88 casino and the beginning of the "15th Five-Year Plan", facing the development requirements of building a world-class university with distinctive characteristics, the w88 casino will take serving the country's major strategies as its mission, further deepen the practice of serving the country's high-level opening to the outside world, explore and form a development model of more universal significance, and contribute more to serving the country's high-level opening to the outside world and the high-quality development of the capital.
Closely align with national strategies and make new contributions in shaping and leading the rules of opening up. Building an efficient "discipline-frontier" dialogue mechanism is a key bridge between theoretical research and practical application, and an important way for universities to serve the national strategy. The w88 casino will establish a normalized cutting-edge rule insight and discipline response mechanism, use national security, intelligent science and technology, regional and national studies and other cross-disciplines as anchors, accelerate the layout of cutting-edge cross-disciplines, and build a new matrix of disciplines covering key areas of the national opening strategy and connecting the functional positioning of the capital. At the same time, relying on platforms such as the National Institute for Opening up to the Outside World, the Global Value Chain Research Institute, and the Digital Economy Research Institute, we will carry out organized joint research to transform cutting-edge issues on international rules into scientific research topics and teaching content, accelerate the cultivation of comprehensive talents who understand technical rules, promote the direct transformation of research results into policy advisory reports and international proposals, and make a "big voice for w88."
Deepen education reform and innovation, and make new breakthroughs in cultivating international talents. Reform and innovation are the core driving force for w88 casino development. We must take discipline construction as the leader, scientific research and innovation as the support, and talent teams as the key to promote the comprehensive reform of education to be deeper and more solid. The w88 casino will benchmark itself against world-class universities, lead new developments with new plans, new reforms, and new actions, unswervingly implement the "Project of Moral Development and Talent Development in the New Era", and integrate the vivid practice of Jinghua into the entire process of ideological and political education. Driven by serving the national strategy of cultivating outstanding social science talents, we will create a new paradigm for independent cultivation of high-level and top-notch innovative talents. Build the "Qiusuo Academy" special zone for cultivating top talents, promote the "One and Six Academies" science and education integration collaborative education project, carry out a pilot academic guidance system for undergraduate tutors, implement the Summer International w88 casino 2.0 Jump Plan, and organize and carry out the international top innovative talent training plan (seed plan) project. Accelerate the promotion of in-depth cooperation with international organizations, expand internship and employment channels for international organizations, build a reserve talent pool for international organizations, strengthen long-term tracking and support for the career development of graduates in international organizations, and build a full support system from selection and training to employment development.
Deepen international exchanges and cooperation and make new achievements in helping to improve the effectiveness of opening up. A high-level opening platform is a key node in global innovation networks and governance exchanges. Its height determines its influence in serving the national opening strategy, and its breadth determines the radiation range and transformation efficiency of opening results. The w88 casino will launch a special plan for international cooperation and exchanges during the “15th Five-Year Plan”, deepen substantive cooperation with world-class universities, expand educational exchanges with the “Belt and Road” and BRICS countries, and promote the “China-Arab Universities 10+10 Cooperation Plan” and the “China-Africa Universities 100-w88 casino Cooperation Plan.” Further strengthen organized scientific research, strengthen the connection with national ministries and relevant departments in Beijing, carry out major special research, build the "International w88 Forum", "International w88 Report" and "International w88 Release" think tank product matrix, release a series of research results on foreign-related rule of law, global value chain, etc., organize experts to speak out in mainstream media, and deeply participate in or initiate international rules discussions, people-to-people exchange programs and high-end think tank cooperation. Deeply cultivate the open ecology of the capital and the region, continue to enhance the influence of brand activities such as the "Beijing Humboldt" Forum and the "Beijing Opening and Development" Forum, and make new contributions to serving the country's high-level opening to the outside world and the high-quality development of the capital.
