International Research Laboratories

Under Project 5-100, SUSU established eight international research laboratories headed by the leading scientists from the USA, Canada, India, Slovakia, France, Great Britain, and Mexico. Owing to the international collaboration during 2016-2018, the University has successfully published articles in a variety of influential journals indexed in Scopus and WoS, including Nature, Energy Fuels, Journal of Luminescence, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Green Processing and Synthesis, and others.
