The Cooperation Exchange Meeting and Academician Forum between the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering and the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering were held on November 3. An expert delegation led by Vladimir Drevitsky, Academician and Vice President of the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering, gathered with representative teachers and students from the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering to discuss academic cooperation and explore the frontiers of science and technology. Huang Guobo, Dean of the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering, Vice Deans Ma Da and Chen Wei, as well as department heads and key faculty members attended the cooperation exchange meeting. The meeting was chaired by Xu Yuanhong, Secretary of the Party Committee of the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering.

Cooperation and Exchange Meeting

During the first phase of the cooperation and exchange meeting, Huang Guobo extended a warm welcome to the Ukrainian delegation. He provided an overview of the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering, covering aspects such as disciplinary development, master’s program establishment, scientific research, talent cultivation, and internationalization efforts. It is hoped that both parties will join hands to actively promote faculty and student exchanges as well as scientific research collaboration. Together, they aim to cultivate high-quality, application-oriented talents with an international perspective, continuously strengthen the foundation of cooperation, deepen exchanges, complement each other’s strengths, foster mutual development, and achieve mutual benefits and win-win outcomes.

Vladimir Drevitsky expressed gratitude for the warm reception and thoughtful arrangements from the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering. He praised the school’s achievements in disciplinary development in recent years. He conveyed his earnest expectations for deepening cooperation between China and the Ukraine. He stated that the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering has a profound foundation in fields such as energy and environmental protection, materials science, and chemical safety. The exchange and cooperation with the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering will promote technological complementarity between the two sides and contribute to global sustainable development.

At the meeting, Huang Guobo and Vladimir Drevitsky, representing the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering and the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering respectively, jointly signed the “Cooperation Framework Agreement between the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering of Taizhou University and the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering.” Both parties identified cooperation areas, including joint scientific research and development, as well as the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, to promote research collaboration and talent cultivation between the various entities of the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering and the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering.

Signing Cooperation Framework Agreement

During the second phase of the Taizhou University and Ukrainian Academician Forum, three Ukrainian experts successively delivered thematic reports.

Academician Vladimir Drevitsky shared his “device for measuring microplankton concentration and biological indicators in surface water quality.” This device efficiently assesses the ecological health of water bodies through real-time analysis of plankton concentration, offering new insights for environmental governance and water environment monitoring technologies.

Academician Yelena Chigirinets introduced the educational characteristics of the National Technical University of Ukraine “Kyiv Polytechnic Institute” and elaborated on the “green volatile corrosion inhibitor technology.” This technology effectively addresses metal corrosion issues, offering greater environmental and efficiency advantages compared to traditional rust-preventive oils, with broad application prospects in fields such as mechanical manufacturing and aerospace.

Academician Anna Kononenko focused on “the formation of microstructure and mechanical properties of selective laser melting (SLM) alloys.” This technology, as an advanced additive manufacturing technique, enables high-precision forming of complex metal components, which holds significant importance for high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace.

Academician Forum

The successful hosting of this cooperation exchange meeting and academician forum not only deepened the friendship and collaboration between the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering and the Ukrainian Academy of Engineering Sciences but also opened broader prospects for both sides in future scientific research exploration, talent cultivation, and achievement transformation. By introducing international intellectual resources, the School of Pharmaceutical and Chemical Engineering will further enhance its discipline construction level and scientific research innovation capabilities, and inject new momentum into the high-quality development of the regional pharmaceutical and chemical industry.
