NENU was recently selected as a partner university for the BYD Scholarship Program, receiving a donation of 3 million RMB from the company. As designated by BYD, the fund will support the cultivation of top innovative talent aligned with national strategic needs, reward outstanding faculty and students, and contribute to NENU’s “Double First-Class” initiative.
BYD is a Fortune Global 500 company listed on both the Hong Kong and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges, with a business portfolio spanning the four major industries of automobiles, electronics, new energy, and rail transit. In 2024, BYD donated 3 billion RMB to establish an educational charitable fund focused on advancing higher education and public science popularization to cultivate more scientific and technological talent for the country.
The successful inclusion in the BYD Scholarship Program marks a promising start for the university-enterprise partnership between NENU and BYD. Looking ahead, both parties will leverage this collaboration as an opportunity to deepen their cooperation in areas such as innovative talent cultivation, the organization of campus cultural and sports activities, and the development of educational facilities, building a win-win framework where industrial demand drives scientific innovation and education empowers the talent supply.
