Nantong Vocational University in Nantong, East China's Jiangsu province was recently rewarded by the organizing committee of the China-ASEAN Education Cooperation Week (CAECW) for its contributions to international exchange programs.

The university has been leveraging its strengths to enhance education cooperation with governments and institutes in member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) since it established a comprehensive partnership with the CAECW.

The university has held two editions of an international invitational internet of things contest, which is part of the CAECW, in the past two years. A total of 640 students from 160 universities in seven different countries participated in the events.

Nantong Vocational University will continue to explore new ways of international vocational education cooperation and increase its presence in ASEAN members, according to a news release by the university.
