As part of Tianjin University of Science and Technology’s (TUST) “TOP TUST” initiative for international outreach, and with the aim of further expanding international educational exchanges and cooperation, the ACT–TUST Science Camp was successfully held from March 4 to 12, 2026. Organized by the College of Artificial Intelligence, the program welcomed teachers and students from Assumption College Thonburi (ACT), Thailand, for a series of scientific, technological, and cultural activities.

During the program, Wang Min, a member of the Standing Committee of the TUST Party Committee and Vice President of the University, warmly met with representatives of the ACT delegation and engaged in in-depth discussions with them. She congratulated the Thai teachers and students on successfully completing the camp activities. She noted that the science camp had not only deepened educational cooperation between the two institutions but also provided a meaningful opportunity for young people from China and Thailand to strengthen mutual understanding, learn from one another, and exchange ideas.

Throughout the week-long program, Thai students participated in a variety of activities, including academic lectures, corporate visits, and cultural experiences. They visited iFLYTEK’s Airport Industrial Base, BYD, and the National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin. They also explored the Binhai Science and Technology Museum and the TUST University History Museum and took part in activities showcasing traditional Chinese culture, including Baduanjin, a traditional Chinese health exercise.

Through these site visits and interactive exchanges, students gained deeper insights into China’s achievements in artificial intelligence, intelligent manufacturing, and supercomputing. They also developed a greater appreciation of Chinese culture and strengthened their understanding of its richness and significance.

SIRIPAT, the teacher leading the ACT delegation, expressed gratitude to the College of Artificial Intelligence for its thoughtful organization and attentive arrangements. Several participating students remarked that the camp had broadened their academic horizons and given them firsthand experience of the vitality of China’s technological progress and the appeal of Chinese culture. They expressed their hope to have more opportunities to study and participate in exchanges in China in the future and to contribute to strengthening the friendship between China and Thailand.

At the closing ceremony, representatives of the College of Artificial Intelligence presented certificates of completion to the Thai teachers and students, marking the success of the science and cultural exchange program.

As a meaningful implementation of “TOP TUST” initiative for international outreach, the camp promoted the integration of educational openness and cultural exchange through in-depth engagement among young people. The program showcased the University’s achievements in its areas of academic strength, enriched the cultural and interpersonal dimensions of cooperation between the two institutions, and injected new momentum into educational and cultural exchanges and scientific and technological cooperation between China and Thailand.
