2019年7月22日至7月26日, 由联合国教科文组织国际工程科技知识中心(IKCEST)和西安交通大学联合主办，IKCEST丝路培训基地承办的第58期丝路工程科技发展专项培训在西安交通大学兴庆校区举行，共有来自西安交通大学、西北工业大学、西安石油大学、长安大学的60余名国际留学生顺利结业，他们分别来自巴基斯坦、也门、赞比亚、尼日利亚等“一带一路”沿线国家。
The 58th IKCEST Training Programme for Silk Road Engineering Science and Technology Development was held on the Xingqing campus of Xi’an Jiaotong University from July 22nd to 26th. This programme was co-hosted by the International Knowledge Centre for Engineering Sciences and Technology (IKCEST) under the Auspices of UNESCO and Xi’an Jiaotong University, and organized by IKCEST Silk Road Training Base. About 60 foreign students from Xi’an Jiaotong University, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an Shiyou University, and Chang’an University successfully graduated in this training programme. They were from Belt-road countries such as Pakistan, Yemen, Zambia, Nigeria, etc.
本次培训课程为期五天，由西安交大资深教授团队亲临授课，内容涵盖人工智能简介、物联网与智慧生活、外国著作权在中国的保护、中国传统文化赏析及中华剪纸体验、中国的美食、区块链技术及应用等内容。课上教师以授课为主，兼备师生互动为辅，同时开展线上线下交流互动。
This programme lasted for five days. Some of the most experienced teachers from Xi’an Jiaotong University gave lectures on the topics of Introduction to Artificial Intelligence, The Internet of Things and Smarter Life, How Foreigners Are Protected in China’s Copyright Industry, Appreciation of Chinese Traditional Culture and Experience of Paper-cutting, and Culinary Delights in China, and Blockchain Technologies and Its Application. The clear and vivid lecturing and examples made these topics deep-going but easy to understand. The students benefited a lot from it and had active discussion with the teacher after the lectures.
此外，为了让留学生们度过一个充实又愉快的夏令营，此次培训还安排了丰富多彩的现场教学活动。7月22日下午，学员们参观了西安交通大学博物馆，在观赏馆内精美藏品的同时，还欣赏了精彩的秦腔表演。演出结束后，学员们送上了最热烈的掌声并纷纷与秦腔表演人员合影。7月25日下午，在工作人员的带领下，学员们参观了位于渭南的快速制造国家工程研究中心，了解当前中国现代化建设。期间，学员们进一步了解了3D打印技术的内涵及其应用，充分体会到了中国前沿科学技术的强大和力量。与此同时，留学生们先后走访了钟楼、鼓楼、大雁塔等名胜古迹，感受千年古都的独特魅力。
In addition, in order to enable international students to spend a full and enjoyable summer camp, this programme arranged a variety of on-site teaching activities.

After the performance, the students gave a warm applause to the performers and took photos with them. On the afternoon of July 25th, under the guidance of the staff, all trainees visited the National Engineering Research Center for Rapid Manufacturing in Weinan to learn about China’s current modernization, which offered them further understanding the connotation of 3D printing technology and its application, and stronger feeling about the power and strength of Chinese cutting-edge science and technology. What’s more, the foreign students have visited scenic spots and historical sites such as the Bell Tower, the Drum Tower and the Great Wild Goose Pagoda that they felt the unique charm of Xi’an, the ancient capital for a millennium.
目前，IKCEST丝路培训基地已举办了58期“丝路工程科技发展专项培训”。此次培训，作为丝路培训基地一项重要工作，将在培养丝路人才，服务国家“一带一路”倡议方面发挥重要的作用，同时，也为西安交大倡导发起的丝路大学联盟、丝路国际学院等一系列工作探索发展道路，并推动文化、科技、教育交流，为丝路沿线和欧亚非地区经济社会发展做出重要贡献。
Up till recently, there have been 58 Sessios of IKCEST Training Programmes for Silk Road Engineering Science and Technology Development. As an important mission of the IKCEST Silk Road Training Base, this training programme plays an important role in cultivating talents and promoting the Belt and Road Initiative. In the Meanwhile, it is also exploring the development direction for projects initiated by XJTU, such as University Alliance of the New Silk Road and Silk Road Academy. It also made important contributions to the economic and social development of European, Asian and African Belt-road countries and regions.
联合国教科文组织国际工程科技知识中心（简称“国际知识中心”、“IKCEST”）是联合国教科文组织下属二类中心，2014 年6月在北京成立，依托中国工程院建设，旨在面向世界各国尤其是发展中国家的政策制定者、广大工程科技工作者提供咨询、科研、教育等知识服务。2017年2月，国际知识中心依托西安交通大学，设立“IKCEST丝路培训基地”，为一带一路沿线国家培养工程科技人才。
The International Knowledge Centre for Engineering Sciences and Technology (shortened as “IKCEST”) is a category II centre under the auspices of UNESCO. IKCEST was established on June 2, 2014. The Chinese Academy of Engineering is responsible for the operation and management of the IKCEST. IKCEST aims at providing knowledge-based services at a global scale in the form of consultancies, scientific research and education for policy-makers and engineering science and technology professionals in the world, with particular reference to the developing countries. In February 2017, based in Xi'an Jiaotong University, IKCEST Silk Road Training Base was established, which aims to train more engineering and technological talents for Belt-Road countries.
