NEFU and China University of Petroleum discussed opportunities for cooperation

North-Eastern Federal University and China University of Petroleum in Qingdao are planning to cooperate in the training of engineers in the oil and gas industry. The opportunities of joint work were discussed during the business meeting of the delegation of the Faculty of Geology and Survey of North-Eastern Federal University with the Chinese side.
