China and Thailand have joined hands to design a talent training program and have integrated Chinese learning, professional courses taught in English, and “intangible cultural heritage” courses with local features into the program according to the needs for talents in Thailand. International academic students from Thailand who participated in the cooperation program will obtain academic diplomas from both Chinese and Thai colleges at the same time after completing three-year of study.
