 Before they left for the airport, the delegation painstakingly discussed with the students in Biomedical Science. The discussion divided into 4 groups, the delegation answer each question from the students, including study method, study environment, living environment and other difference between China and Britain. These students are now preparing to participate in University of Edinburgh, and then they will go to University of Edinburgh to continue to study. Therefore, the discussion in this time especially made sense. And this also was the first time for British teachers to talk with our students face to face, so it’s very useful for them to know Chinese students. We believe that the study life will become more and more meaningful in the coming year.
