9月2日至6日， 2023年中国国际服务贸易交易会（简称“服贸会”）在北京举行，宁波诺丁汉大学（简称“宁诺”）党委书记、副校长沈伟其教授和教学副校长马飞宇教授（Philip Seltsikas）应邀出席2023服贸会论坛并发表主题演讲。
2023年服贸会由中国商务部和北京市人民政府主办，是全球首个、目前规模最大的服务贸易领域综合型展会，吸引了众多海内外教育领域的政府、机构和企业代表的参与。
沈伟其教授在论坛上表示，国际化人才是世界的未来，是国家实现双循环战略的重要力量。国际化人才培养的显著特征就在于需要全球化环境下的熏陶以及多元文化的互动。他说：“国际化人才至少具有四个核心素养：第一是要有家国情怀，勇于担当历史和国家的大任，在实践当中知行合一；第二是能够认同多元文化，能平等看待不同文化、不同价值背景的人或事；第三是具有跨文化、跨国界的沟通和交流能力；第四是具备国际先进的知识、技能和态度，这也是作为国际化人才最重要的核心要素。而所谓大学的国际化，就是在教学、科研和社会服务这些核心功能的三条经线上，串上跨国界、跨文化这条纬线。”
马飞宇教授发表主题演讲，从国际教育市场的经济影响、高等教育的质量管理和培养国际人才面临的挑战三个方面阐述了宁诺在中国开展国际化高等教育的情况。他认为，教育监管是教育质量保障体系的运作的重要基础，因此要加强教育质量管理，确保教育的诚信与公正。同时，马飞宇教授呼吁教育工作者、管理者、政策制定者和行业合作伙伴通力合作，共同促进中国的教育质量和教育影响力的提升。他还以宁诺为例，深入阐述了教育质量保障体系的运作。
受英国国际贸易部邀请，宁波诺丁汉大学作为中英教育合作典范亮相服贸会教育服务专题展，向海内外政府、院校、机构和企业展示了学校办学特色及教育成果，彰显了宁诺在国际高等教育和国际文化交流的影响力。展览期间，英国商业贸易部国务大臣多米尼克·约翰逊（Dominic Johnson）与英国驻华大使吴若兰（ Caroline Wilson）亲自接见了宁波诺丁汉大学商务拓展部主管大卫·福斯特（David Foster），这次会面彰显了双方在促进教育合作方面的共同关注和努力。
作为中外合作大学的典范，宁波诺丁汉大学不仅在国内取得了显著成绩，也在国际舞台上获得了认可。学校与44个国家及地区的150所海外院校建立了合作伙伴关系，为学生提供了众多的国际交流机会。宁波诺丁汉大学以其国际化的教育理念和卓越的实践，为培养立足中国、具有国际视野且能胜任未来的创新型高级人才，为推动中外合作教育迈向新的高度，为实现“人类命运共同体”的目标，不懈努力，为世界教育事业的繁荣和发展作出积极贡献。
UNNC invited to 2023 CIFTIS
The University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) was invited to participate in the 2023 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS), leading the new trend in international education and contributing to the global higher education.
From 2-6 September, the 2023 CIFTIS, jointly organised by the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China and the Beijing Municipal Government, was held in Beijing. Professor Sam Shen, Secretary of the Party Committee and Vice Provost of UNNC, and Professor Philip Seltsikas, Vice Provost for Education and Student Experience of UNNC, were invited to attend the CIFTIS forum and deliver keynote speeches, sharing UNNC's advanced experience and strengths in the field of international education and showcasing its outstanding achievements in internationalised education.
Professor Sam Shen emphasised that internationalised talents are the future of the world and a crucial force for our country to achieve its dual circulation strategy. A remarkable feature of cultivating internationalised talents lies in the need for exposure to a globalised environment and interaction with diverse cultures. Internationalised talents should possess at least four core qualities: first, they should have a sense of responsibility towards their homeland and be brave in shouldering the historical and national responsibilities, amalgamating theory and practice; second, they must have an inclusive attitude towards different cultures and value backgrounds; third, they should possess cross-cultural and cross-border communication and collaboration skills; and fourth, they must possess internationally advanced knowledge, skills, and attitudes, which are the core elements of being an internationalised talent. The internationalisation of universities is to connect the core functions of teaching, research, and community service with a transnational and cross-cultural dimension.
In his speech, Professor Philip Seltsikas expounded on the implementation of international higher education at UNNC from three aspects: the economic impact of the international education market, quality management in higher education, and the challenges in cultivating international talents. Professor Philip Seltsikas believes that educational supervision is an important foundation for the operation of the quality assurance system, therefore strengthening educational quality management is necessary to ensure integrity and fairness in education. At the same time, collaboration is a key factor for success in the global trend of education. He called for collective efforts from educators, administrators, policy makers, and industry partners to promote the enhancement of China's educational capacity and influence. He used UNNC as an example to delve into the operation of the education quality assurance system.
Invited by the UK Department for International Trade, UNNC, as a model of Sino-British education, made an appearance as the main guest country in the Education Services Theme Exhibition at the Service Trade Fair, showcasing the university's educational achievements. This was aimed at enhancing UNNC's international connections and influence. During the exhibition, Dominic Johnson, the Minister of State at the UK Department for International Trade and Caroline Elizabeth Wilson, the British Ambassador to China, met with David Foster, the Director of Business Development at UNNC, highlighting the mutual attention and efforts in promoting educational cooperation between the two sides.
As a model of Sino-foreign cooperative universities, UNNC has achieved remarkable success both domestically and internationally. The university has established partnerships with 150 overseas institutions in 44 countries and regions, providing students with vast opportunities for international exchanges. UNNC is committed to fostering outstanding talents with an international perspective and cross-cultural communication skills through its internationalised educational philosophy and excellence in practice. The university continuously strives to advance Sino-foreign cooperative education to new heights and contribute actively to the prosperity and development of the global education sector. Its efforts align with the goal of building a "community with a shared future for mankind" and making positive contributions to the flourishing and advancement of the world education endeavor.
