A total of 545,000 Chinese students studied overseas in 2016, while 443,000 international students came to China, up 36.2% and 35.1%, respectively. In addition, the country saw 433,000 overseas returnees in the last year, and they have become a major force that promotes China’s education, economy and culture.
By the end of 2016, China has been in cooperative relationship with 188 countries and regions, and signed agreements of mutual recognition of degrees with 47 countries and regions. The country has also built high-level cultural exchange mechanisms with Russia, the US, the UK, the European Union, France, Indonesia, South Africa and Germany. Cultural communication is now one of the three major diplomatic pillars, together with political mutual trust and economic cooperation.
