On Dec. 22, 2023, Professor Yu Miaojie, deputy secretary of the CPC Committee and president of LNU, was invited to join the International Advisory Board as a board member of Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation (FU IAB).

The Financial University is one of the leading Russian universities. It occupies a top position in the list of universities that offer programs in Economics, International Finance, Law, Information Technology and Social Sciences. The FU IAB is headed by Professor Muhammad Yunus, a holder of the Nobel Peace Prize and world-famous expert in microfinancing and microloans. It invites outstanding persons who have international experience in education, research, finance and management. Its mission is to share best practices and competencies in these areas, and the total number of the Board members cannot exceed 15 people.

The invitation extended to President Yu Miaojie to join the FU IAB represents a high level of recognition for both President Yu and Liaoning University. This not only elevates the cooperative relationship between the two institutions to a new level, but also promotes the further development of the partnership between China and Russia.
