It is adjacent to the majestic high-speed rail elevated line and Wuhan Third Ring Road in the east, the foggy East Lake in the west, the lush Moshan Mountain in the south and the Wuhan Railway Station where yellow cranes spread their wings in the north. With beautiful scenery and elegant environment, it is an ideal place for students to further their studies.

Since its establishment, the College has invested 6.5438+0.5 million yuan in greening the new school gate square, new sports ground, experimental building and teaching area, forming a small forest and a stadium avenue in the new school gate and sports ground area. The bamboo garden between the library and the south corner, the Wei Zi Bauhinia Garden between the south corner and the south corner, the Yulan Park between the south corner and the south triangle, the red leaf plum and red leaf peach garden between the south corner and the south corner, the cherry garden between the south corner and the south corner square, and the Gui Huayuan between the south corner and the south corner square make the whole teaching area bloom all year round. The College was rated as "Advanced Greening Collective" by Wuhan Municipal Greening Committee, and only three universities won this honor. The distinctive features of "foreign languages, foreign affairs, foreign economics and foreign trade" conform to the trend of economic globalization.

In recent years, the college has formed a professional group and supporting professional teachers with the characteristics of "foreign languages, foreign affairs, foreign economics and foreign trade". In order to highlight the foreign-related nature of each major, the college has carried out reforms in related majors, such as: reforming the major of "Legal Affairs", adding courses on international economy, international trade, international investment and other laws and regulations, and training students in accordance with the foreign-related economic and legal direction. Except for English, French, Japanese, Korean and other language majors, other non-language majors have arranged college English classes for 3-5 semesters, with an average of 266 class hours, accounting for 17% of the total theoretical class hours. Foreign-related majors also offer listening and speaking training courses and specialized English courses, which makes English teaching continuous. Grasping the huge demand of economic globalization for talents in foreign languages, foreign affairs, foreign economics and foreign trade, and the historical opportunity for the country to vigorously develop higher vocational education, the college has given full play to the institutional and institutional advantages of private higher vocational education and achieved remarkable results:

In May, 2004, the college arranged for students to practice in Wuhan East Lake Hotel, and successfully received leading comrades of the Central Committee, the State Council and the Central Military Commission. In September, 2004, college students once again undertook the reception work of "World Population and Development Forum Seminar" in Donghu Hotel, which was well received.

In 2006 and 2007, Chen Rui, a tourism English major, participated in the national english contest for college students for two consecutive years and won the special prize. She was invited to participate in the National Summer Camp for College Students and won the third prize in the National Summer Camp English Speech Competition.

Faye Wong and Wen Jing, students majoring in applied English in Grade 06, won the first prize in the 12th and 13th Hubei Translation Competition respectively. Ma Qianqian, a student majoring in tourism English in 2005, won the title of "Top Ten Miss Tourists in the World" in 2006 with her fluent English, solid tourism knowledge and good quality. In nearly four foreign language translation competitions held in Hubei Province, dozens of students won the first, second and third prizes in English, French and Japanese respectively, with remarkable achievements. In the national english contest for college students in 2009, three students won the grand prize, seven students won the second prize, and 13 students won the third prize. Overseas cultivation, natural cultivation of global vision.

On the campus of the college, you can often meet teachers with different colors and languages. They are foreign teachers who live on campus for a long time. In order to strengthen students' language ability, feel foreign cultural atmosphere and create a real language learning environment, since 2005, the college has hired 75 foreign teachers from Australia, France, Korea, Canada, the United States, Japan and other countries to participate in teaching, creating foreign cultural atmosphere in various forms and cultivating students' foreign language autonomous learning ability and foreign affairs role consciousness.

Every Thursday night, the foreign language corner is undoubtedly the most popular place in the hospital. No matter freshmen or old students, no matter language majors or other majors, as long as they are willing to practice, the Foreign Language Corner will open its doors and warmly welcome them. Whenever an activity is held, foreign teachers from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, France, Japan, Italy and other countries will communicate with their classmates in English, Japanese and French, and different languages are intertwined into an exotic serenade.

International Style Street and Foreign Language Autonomous Learning Center are another beautiful landscape of the college. International Style Street, with Tokyo Cafe, Seoul Cafe, Paris Cafe and London Cafe as platforms, with multilingual services such as Japanese, Korean, French and English as means, is open every day to train students' oral English. The foreign language autonomous learning center not only introduces the contents of teaching materials, IELTS TOEFL test and various foreign language films, but also, with the support of the public security and radio and television departments, has established overseas radio and television satellite reception facilities to receive eight sets of overseas TV programs in Britain, the United States, France, Japan and Korea, so that students can receive authentic foreign language education and learn about overseas cultural and social information, which has become an important position for foreign language learning.

In addition to creating an international atmosphere in schools, sending students abroad for internships and research can quickly improve their language ability and broaden their international horizons. To this end, the college has established contacts with relevant institutions in the United States, Japan, Singapore and other countries, and established overseas internship and research bases, sending students abroad for internship and research every year.

On March 1 1, 2009, applause broke out in the lecture hall of Nanyi College, which was very lively. Four students from the Foreign Languages Department of our college went to Japan for a one-year study. On this day, Zou Ting, He, Rao Dan and Chen Guangmin wore gorgeous kimonos and gave speeches in fluent Japanese.

The excellent performance of the students has been recognized by the Japanese side. Mr. Shanchuan, consultant of Japan JTB Co., Ltd. Cultural Exchange Department, said that although students from Wuhan Foreign Studies University come from higher vocational colleges, their comprehensive quality has surpassed that of many undergraduate colleges.

In 2007, our college launched an overseas study program. Six batches of *** 1 18 people were selected to participate, and five batches of ***29 people were successfully sent, 13 people returned to China to study, and 16 people were studying. The first batch of students going to the United States for paid internships are about to leave. Aiming at the problem that college graduates are weak in practical ability and practical ability, it is difficult to find a job. It is an effective way to promote the seamless connection between students and market demand to actively carry out vocational qualification appraisal and implement the "double certificate" system (that is, graduates of higher vocational colleges obtain vocational qualification certificates as soon as possible before obtaining academic certificates). Students of grade 2005-2007 took 27 kinds of vocational skills examinations, including secretarial certificate, tour guide certificate, customs broker's certificate, single certificate, material loan certificate and customs broker's certificate, and 20 17 people obtained corresponding certificates. The passing rate of graduates in 2008 and 2009 reached 72.66% and 79.83% respectively.

The foreign-related management department, which is famous for its high pass rate of accounting qualification examination, is very experienced in this respect: the teacher groups the students and lets each student take turns to play different roles in the financial department and bear corresponding responsibilities. This not only makes them feel immersive, but also exercises the spirit of teamwork and accompanies students' professional ethics and literacy. After the training, the students majoring in foreign accounting jointly wrote a thank-you letter to the department, which read: "We put the theory of textbook dogma into practice and felt the sense of responsibility and professionalism that accounting should have." Self-study at 7: 00 in the morning and from 7: 00 to 9: 00 in the evening. Strict management will not stop at the college entrance examination, but also continue on the university campus. "University how also tube so strict? I have the freedom not to study by myself! " Many students didn't understand at first, and even complained. Professor Li Yuzhu, the dean, made a strong response to the students' complaints: "Universities are not safes, so we should learn to study and develop the habit and ability of conscious and independent learning." Students in higher vocational colleges have active thoughts and strong plasticity, but they often lack self-control and poor study habits.

Facing these problems, it is particularly important to develop good study habits. Therefore, the college introduced "semi-militarized management" into the campus. Freshmen regularly arrange morning and evening self-study, and the Ministry of Education arranges special personnel for irregular inspection. "It's seven o'clock, it's time to go to the playground to endorse!" Sophomore, even if the morning and evening self-study has been cancelled, getting up early has become inertia.

Strict management is not to control students to death, but to cultivate their self-care ability and will. In the student dormitory, there is a room on each floor that is the teacher dormitory, ensuring that every major has teachers and students living together. In recent years, these class teachers with bachelor's and master's degrees have become good teachers and friends of students with their own knowledge structure, behavior quality and love. Shaping comprehensive quality and cultivating capitalized "people"

Zhang Yujuan, a student majoring in applied French, went to college behind her back when her father died, her mother was seriously ill and her family was poor. He took care of his mother while studying, and his academic performance was excellent. His deeds were published in the full pages of Chutian Metropolis Daily and Wuhan Evening News, which had a wide impact on the society and was praised as a model for college students in the new era.

Mencius said: having virtue without talent is mediocrity, having talent without virtue is tenacity, and having both ability and political integrity is virtue. In terms of personnel training, the college insists on "educating people" as its fundamental task and purpose, and pays special attention to the cultivation of students' comprehensive quality. In mid-April, 2007, the front page of Hubei Daily reported strongly on the moral education scholarship system of the college. Hundreds of media, such as China Youth Daily, Legal Evening News, China Education News, Xinhuanet, Sohu.com and Zixun.com of China University, reported on this system, which clearly showed the world the school-running concept of "emphasizing learning, striving for development, striving for achievements and strengthening quality".

The college has also developed an online management system for students' comprehensive quality, which can provide parents' accounts. Parents can clearly understand their children's attendance at school, participate in activities, reward and punishment records through accounts, and participate in management through messages and online communication. High employment rate and worry-free future

Education serves employment. In the eyes of college leaders and all teachers, employment is not only a personal matter for students, but a "big project" for colleges, departments and cooperative units to work together.

The College joined China Employment Alliance Network and China Enterprise Talent Network, and set up 10 employment practice bases in economically developed areas such as Shanghai and Shenzhen, which ensured the high employment rate of students.

The College actively negotiated with well-known enterprises such as Microsoft (China) Co., Ltd., Aerospace Vision Technology Co., Ltd. and Wuhan Telecom Customer Service Center, and established the idea of "order-based" training. Order-based training has created a new type of applied talents who can be employed just after graduation or even before graduation, and has become a new channel for employment in colleges and universities, which has played a great role in improving the employment quality of graduates.

So far, all the students in the first phase of "Aerial Survey Class" have been employed by Wuhan Hangtianshitong Technology Co., Ltd. and the Second Highway Survey and Design Institute of the Ministry of Communications.

Education serves the society. According to the statistics of university graduation office, the employment rate of graduates has achieved gratifying results: the employment rate in 2006 was 85.07%, in 2007 it was 93.08%, and in 2008 it was 98.56%, which was higher than the average level of provincial vocational colleges.

For one reason, for another reason, Wuhan Vocational College of Foreign Languages and Foreign Affairs has made many stories widely circulated in the education sector. Xiongguan road is as iron as iron, and now it is still one step away from the beginning. Looking back, Wuhan Vocational College of Foreign Languages and Foreign Affairs has created its own glory with its own persistence. Looking forward to the future, Wuhan Vocational College of Foreign Languages and Foreign Affairs will build its own brand with its own characteristics!
