The first Forum on High-level Education Opening from the Perspective of Chinese Modernization, held in this context, aims to exchange and discuss high-level education opening with domestic and foreign guests, share ideas and opinions, and contribute to the promotion of high-level education opening from the perspective of Chinese modernization. High-level educational opening up is an important foundation for promoting high-level opening up to the outside world and an important feature of the construction of world-class universities with Chinese characteristics. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that "we must improve the strategic strategy of education opening to the outside world, coordinate the two major articles of 'bringing in' and 'going out', and effectively utilize world-class educational resources and innovative elements to make our country an important world education center with strong influence." This is not only a major mission of our country's education, but also a major need for our country's economic and social development; it is both a major theoretical issue and a major practical issue. To this end, w88 casino has specially established the World Important Education Center Research Institute, striving to study and explore the background, evolution rules, basic characteristics and main functions of the world's important education centers, to serve the opening of high-level education and the construction of a powerful educational country. w88 casino has a prominent "foreign" character. Taking 2023 as an example, there have been 90 delegations from overseas universities, international organizations, etc., with a total of 500 people visiting w88 casino. International exchanges and cooperation are very active. The open world economy is a key first-class discipline in w88 casino, and it is also the only subject group in the country that focuses on this construction. Relying on the advantageous disciplines of the open world economy, we have a very good foundation and conditions for research and promotion of high-level openness in education. Under the perspective of Chinese-style modernization, promoting the opening up of high-level education is entering a higher stage. Colleges and universities should be more proactive, more active, and play a greater role in promoting the opening up of high-level education, assisting the construction of important education centers in the world, and accelerating the construction of world-class universities with Chinese characteristics.
