East China University of Science and Technology's international elite engineering school has signed a memorandum of understanding with more than 10 companies from China and France to cooperate in education, training, and assessment of excellent innovative talent.
The companies, including famous names like Syensqo, Arkema, Saint-Gobain, Michelin, Air Liquide, and Sanofi, have become inaugural members of Chimie Shanghai's Partner-Enterprise Club.
