Engagement with the region

"The University of Edinburgh has a proud heritage of collaboration with China. As we look to an increasingly global future, I am excited to lead this truly international university into even stronger collaborations and innovative partnerships in China.

We want to engage, learn, work together, enhance mutual understanding and create impact for the benefit of society all over the world."

Professor Sir Peter Mathieson, Principal and Vice-Chancellor, University of Edinburgh

爱丁堡大学在与中国的交流合作方面有着让我们引以为傲的悠久传统。展望日益全球化的未来,我非常期待带领这所真正意义上的国际化大学,进一步深化同中国的密切合作和创新型伙伴关系。 

我们希望加强参与、学习、合作、增进相互了解,并在世界各地为社会福祉的推动创造影响。
