近日，来华留学相关问题引起社会热议。教育部国际合作与交流司负责人在回答记者提问时表示，教育部将进一步推动中外学生趋同化管理，对违规违纪的留学生严肃处理、绝不纵容姑息。
The Ministry of Education will ask universities to adopt similar standards for all students, foreign and Chinese, in teaching, exam requirements, education resources and services, said an official from the ministry's department of international cooperation and exchanges.
教育部国际合作与交流司负责人表示，教育部将进一步推动来华留学生与中国学生的管理和服务趋同化，实现统一标准的教学管理与考试考核制度，提供平等一致的教学资源与管理服务。
- 离开自己所在的国家去其他国家和地区的学校学习深造的所有学生统称为international students（国际学生/留学生），对于本国的学生来说，从其他国家来我国学习的学生就是foreign students，而离开我们国家去外国学习的学生则是overseas students，学成回国的“海归”就是overseas returnees。这几年很流行的“出国游学”就是overseas study tour。
该负责人介绍，来华留学经费主要用于资助根据中国政府与有关国家（地区）政府签订的教育交流协议到中国高校学习或开展科研的非中国籍公民。
China has signed official education exchange agreements with more than 180 countries, under which both sides can send students to each other's countries for further study, the ministry said.
目前，中国和180多个国家签订了政府间教育交流协议，支持双方互派学生到对方国家学习深造。
In 2018, the country welcomed 492,000 international students from 196 countries and regions to study at 1,004 universities and research institutes across the country, it said.
据教育部发布的统计数据，2018年，共有来自196个国家和地区的49.2万名留学生在国内1004所高校和科研机构学习。
The ministry said 63,000 international students were funded by Chinese government scholarships last year, accounting for just 12.8 percent of the foreign students in China. Moreover, 70 percent of those receiving scholarships were pursuing master's or doctoral degrees.
其中，共有6.3万名中国政府奖学金生，占来华留学生总数的12.8%。这些中国政府奖学金生中，攻读学位的硕博研究生占70%。
下一步，教育部将进一步完善中国政府奖学金生的招生和管理，提高标准，保障质量。同时，健全奖学金院校考核评估机制，对违规招生或培养质量不达标的院校，取消招收和培养奖学金生资格。
The ministry punished 18 universities for irregularities in international student admission, certificate issuance for visa applications and on-campus management. Sixteen institutions were suspended to enroll foreign students last year, it said.
2018年，教育部严肃处理了18所院校在来华留学生招收、录取、签证等留学生管理工作过程中的各类违法违规行为，暂停16所涉事院校招收外国留学生的资格。
Universities should also teach international students relevant laws and regulations in China, and students who violate those laws and regulations or commit crimes will be dealt with seriously, the official said.
该负责人强调，高校应当对来华留学生进行中国法律法规、校规校纪教育，对违规违纪的留学生严肃处理。
