Comparing 2015 MOU, this renewed Cooperation Agreement presented a strengthened commitment of DAAD and HUST on the Program. Instead of allowing only two researchers for exchange annually, each party is now able to send five researchers to the counterpart. Yet, HUST also showed a strong commitment to contributing financially to support German scientists’ mobility at HUST.
