w88 casino News Network (Reporter Jiang Fanghao, Party Committee Propaganda Department)Xie Yuantao, dean, professor, and doctoral supervisor of the w88 casino of Insurance, w88 casino. BU jointly cultivates a doctorate. He is a visiting scholar at the w88 casino of Mathematics at the University of Manchester in the UK and a visiting scholar at WIPO. He has served as a researcher at the Veterans Administration (VA) of the United States, vice president of the Beijing Insurance Society, director of the China Association of Actuaries, executive director of the Risk Management and Actuarial Branch of the China Field Statistics Research Association, and member of the Administrative Management Sub-Technical Committee (TC594 SC1) of the National Technical Committee on Administrative Management and Service Standardization.
Since 1954, the w88 casino has been actively exploring and innovating in the process of internationalization of education. On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of w88 casino’s study abroad program in China, teacher Xie Yuantao looked back at the moment when he first joined the University: “When I first joined the University of International w88 in 2009, the enrollment of international students at the University was very large, and a large number of teachers were organized for interviews every year. I remember that in the old Qiusuo Building, I could always find traces of various international students writing on the blackboard, giving speeches, or studying.” Thinking about these details now, they are all achievements of “Study at the University of International w88.”
Talking about w88 casino’s achievements in education in China, Xie Yuantao said with emotion that the w88 casino of Insurance, as one of the training bases for international students in China, has trained more than 100 graduate students from countries along the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. In 2017, the Insurance Institute cooperated with PICC Property and Casualty Co., Ltd. to provide training for countries along the Belt and Road, cultivating middle-level leaders and providing professional, international insurance protection and one-stop, full-process insurance services for "going global" Chinese customers and other customers with global attributes. Teachers from the college have jointly developed the course “One Belt, One Road Initiative and Enterprise Overseas Risk Management” with China’s “One Belt, One Road” Reinsurance Community. International students are also very interested in it and want to know what kind of impact the One Belt, One Road construction will have on them.
In the end, many of them successfully went out - many were doing research, some have entered their decision-making committees, some have entered the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and can even influence the formulation of local policies. It can be said that in a certain sense, overseas education has an impact on the global economy, politics and society. This proves that our study and education work in China is really of great significance, which is really touching.
Hearing this, the reporter deeply understood Xie Yuantao’s enthusiasm and concern for education in China, and also understood the importance and far-reaching influence of education in China.
When talking about the difficulties encountered in his work, Xie Yuantao said bluntly that the main difficulty in the early days was language, which was particularly prominent when providing thesis guidance; the second was the lack of teachers. At that time, the college's financial resources were limited and there were not enough returnee teachers. Through cooperative relationships, the college has introduced some friends from foreign consulting companies to teach. These teachers are very dedicated and many of them have become excellent partners with the international students and have developed deep relationships.
The difficulty we faced later was the convergence management of international PhD students and local PhD students. Papers written by international students often focus on the macro-policy practices of their own countries. Some countries have this requirement for public-sponsored students abroad, while more domestic research paradigms are based on refined micro-analysis.
“Sometimes the research paradigm is different. Our country’s research is too micro and detailed. Some international students focus on their country’s macro economy. But from our perspective, how can your doctoral thesis write about a country’s macro finance and investment? What about funding issues? We suggest them to write from a small perspective - but this may not meet their macro needs, so it is easy to cause problems, which is a big difficulty in the talent training process. "In addition to difficulties and challenges, Xie Yuantao also shared many heart-warming moments in studying abroad and education. Every story contains a deep friendship between teachers and students, and every detail is warm and touching. He said: "After so many years, I still miss those days very much. Teachers and classmates have learned a lot from it."
Talking about the future development of w88 casino’s education in China, Xie Yuantao said, “In order to strengthen w88 casino’s international exchanges and cooperation, we must first organize foreign alumni to represent the International w88 Union to try to find opportunities for international exchanges and cooperation. Many of our international Ph.D. students are already university teachers in various countries and have certain academic resources themselves. Secondly, the w88 casino level should take the initiative to go out and look for various international exchange and cooperation opportunities. The key is to mobilize the enthusiasm of all teachers and activate the subjective initiative of all teachers. Teachers are encouraged to actively participate in various international conferences and look for opportunities for Sino-foreign cooperative education, joint training, and exchange visits. ”
At the end of the interview, Xie Yuantao concluded that the importance of studying abroad in China mainly has two points: one is talent cultivation, through cultivating high-quality international students, achieving high-level talent output and providing a large number of builders and decision-makers for the local area; the other is cultural consensus. Through the Belt and Road Initiative, we have promoted the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, and through studying abroad and education, we have formed a consensus on Chinese culture and become a core group of people who are pro-China and friendly to China. The trend of education work, in addition to the traditional training of high-level talents, is developing in a more refined direction, cultivating top talents and cultivating leadership talents. In the future, the w88 casino of Insurance will continue to strengthen cooperation with Chinese insurance companies to jointly promote international education and industrial development under the “One Belt, One Road” initiative.
“I believe that in the future, w88 casino will continue to actively promote the high-quality and innovative development of education in China, play an important role in the process of internationalization of education, promote education in China to new heights, and create new brilliance,” Xie Yuantao said.
