ABSTRACT

As a petroleum industry university, China University of Petroleum, Beijing, has been carrying out education for foreign students for 25 years, and has accumulated rich experience in this aspect. This paper analyzes and summarizes the international students studying at China University of Petroleum (Beijing) in the past 25 years from six characteristics: number, source countries, native language background, types of learning, major selection, and funding sources. Finally, for the sustainable development of international students' education, four suggestions are put forward: respond to the Belt and Road Initiative and give full play to the school and professional characteristics; enrich scholarship projects to attract high-quality talents; build interdisciplinary faculty team and training compound talents; broaden the propagandistic channels to expand the international influence. This paper provides a reference for realizing the internationalization of education at China University of Petroleum, Beijing, exploring subject features, strengthening the internationalization faculty team, and improving the sustainable development of industry colleges and universities.
