The "Study in BIT" Summer Renewable Energy Materials Science program kicked off at the School of Materials Science & Engineering at Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) in July.

Outstanding students from 10 countries, including the UK, France, Spain, and Argentina, gathered at the school to embark on a focused journey of systematic learning in the field of renewable energy materials science.

The program relies on the key laboratories, high-level research platforms, and top-notch faculty in the field of energy materials at the School of Materials Science & Engineering to provide comprehensive academic support for students from multiple high-level overseas partner institutions.

During the one-month course, the school integrated high-level teaching resources to tailor a series of cutting-edge courses and experimental projects for the students. The course content focuses on advanced energy storage technologies such as electrochemical energy storage basics, lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells, and solar cells, covering multiple modules including theoretical lectures, hands-on experiments, and academic discussions.

In addition, outside the classroom, the school has meticulously planned Chinese language courses and cultural experience activities for the students, helping international youth immerse themselves in authentic China through multidimensional interactions.

Young students from diverse cultural backgrounds have established profound friendships in this summer program at BIT, expanding their international perspectives and enhancing global understanding through cross-cultural interactions.

As a key international education program at BIT, the "Study in BIT" summer program always adheres to the dual drivers of "cutting-edge academics + cultural experience", aiming to create an internationally influential platform for talent exchange. BIT will continue to deepen its exchange mechanisms with global cooperation institutions, promote collaborative talent development in key areas such as energy materials and environmental science, and persist in building a technology education cooperation platform with international impact.
