To deeply boost its educational internationalization, broaden the international horizon of its students and strengthen its international exchanges and cooperation in education, IMU continues to recommend top students to take part in the exchange programs of the top universities around the world. During the winter holiday, IMU selected 24 top students to participate in the program of big data science of FAU, 21 students to take part in the program of robotics technology of USM and 16 students to participate in the program of business analysis of USM. From January 10, 2023, the courses successively began. The students from IMU and the students from other universities of China studied in the same class. With 2-week online study, all the students completed their study and got the certificates for the competition of courses. After the completion of courses, all the students wrote about their feelings and experiences in studying courses.
The data science course lasted for 2 weeks, altogether 16 hours and was taught by professors with FAU. And the Department of Data Science of FAU awarded the certificates to students for their completion of the course which involves control, machine learning and numerics.
(1) Control and design driven by model and data;
(2) A general introduction to finite-dimensional control;
(3) Control and machine learning;
(4) A general introduction to neural network and effective algorithm to train neural network.

Established in 1743, FAU was transferred to Erlangen later. It is member of Top International Managers in Engineering Association like RWTH Aachen University, Technical University of Munich and Dresden University of Technology. FAU has a top faculty of medicine and faculties of technologies. Its material science, energy engineering, communication system, electric engineering and medicine rank top 10 in QS university rankings and ARWU. Since its establishment, the university has produced 4 Nobel Prize winners and fostered many outstanding scientists, engineers, philosophers and medical experts.
USM, short for Universiti Sains Malaysia, was established in 1969. It is the second public university established in Malaysia and also the acknowledged old elite university that ranks second in the country. As a top university in the world, it is renowned in medicine, science and engineering around the world. USM ranks 147 in QS university rankings.
