On November 18, 2025, WIE International officially reached a cooperative intention with Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), one of China’s top universities in the elite C9 League, on international student recruitment and short-term training programs in China. A powerful combination of "top-tier C9 university strength + professional institutional expertise" has officially set sail.
Notably, HIT has become the third C9 university to establish cooperation with WIE International, following Peking University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University. This marks a further expansion of WIE International’s partnership network in promoting international education at C9 universities.
As a core member of the C9 League, Harbin Institute of Technology ranks among the top universities in China in engineering disciplines and enjoys an international reputation for its profound academic foundation and outstanding research capabilities. With high-quality educational resources and a comprehensive training system, HIT provides international students with a first-class academic platform and broad development prospects, making it a top choice for global students pursuing further studies in China.
With years of experience in international education promotion, WIE International has a precise understanding of the core needs of overseas student recruitment. Leveraging its mature experience and extensive network accumulated through cooperation with PKU and SJTU, WIE International can effectively reach target overseas groups and build a global communication bridge for HIT’s world-class educational resources.
According to the cooperation agreement, from November 18, 2025 to November 18, 2027, WIE International is authorized to promote HIT’s international education programs for overseas students in Shenzhen.
This means WIE International’s C9 partnership matrix has added a strong engineering powerhouse. HIT’s superior engineering resources will be deeply integrated with WIE International’s overseas promotion capabilities. Taking advantage of Shenzhen’s international status, China’s top engineering education resources will be delivered more accurately to the global study-abroad market.
This cooperation not only opens a new channel for overseas students to access high-quality engineering education at C9 universities, but also improves WIE International’s "full-discipline coverage" layout in promoting C9 university international education, further strengthening its professional service capacity and industry influence.
