Under this project, the CZU has started cooperation with Dschang University (DU). The exchange of students and staff between these two institutions is a priority for quality assurance in education and research and the internationalisation of both HEI. The project activities will contribute to the improvement of courses (modern teaching methods and inspirations related to the equipment and infrastructure) and research focusing on agricultural and environmental sciences with a focus on small-scale biogas technology (one of the research priorities for FTA and Renewable Energy Laboratory at DU) and through direct participation of mobile staff and students. The mobile students will become a part of Biogas Research Team and will participate in all its research and education activities. The mobile staff will participate in relevant courses, provide special lectures and seminars, meet local staff and discuss cooperation on education and research activities.
