Talking to Gwadar Pro, Director of CSC Professor Dr. Zahid Anwar termed the second phase of CPEC as a “corridor of knowledge and higher education”, adding that China has become a popular destination for Pakistani students.

Besides Chinese language courses, CSC is also playing a pivotal role in facilitating needy and deserving students of the University of Peshawar in getting Chinese Scholarships. It also helps send faculty members of the University of Peshawar to China to receive training of international standards.
