Abstract
The Top Talent Training Program, initiated by the University of Science and Technology Beijing in Spring 2024, exemplifies a pioneering approach to globalizing Chinese higher education. This comprehensive program, backed by the China Education Association for International Exchange, leverages directives from China’s national educational strategy and the global expertise of over one hundred distinguished professors from world-renowned institutions. Offering 103 courses entirely in English, the program spans diverse disciplines, emphasizing interdisciplinary knowledge and real-world application through a dual-phase educational model. The initiative not only bolsters the international competencies of students but also fosters significant academic and professional advancements. This paper evaluates the program’s design, implementation, and outcomes, highlighting its profound impact on students and suggesting future directions for expanding its global and educational reach.
