Abstract

Intercultural communication competence has become particularly important in today's globalisation context, especially in the field of international cooperation and exchange. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the methods and strategies to improve intercultural communication competence in higher education cooperation between China and Uzbekistan (hereinafter referred to as "Uzbekistan"). Firstly, the importance of intercultural communication competence and its relevance to higher education cooperation are analysed. Secondly, measures to cultivate intercultural communication competence are proposed in the light of the cultural characteristics and educational systems of China and Uzbekistan. Then, through case analysis and empirical research, the application effects of these measures in actual cooperation projects are explored. Finally, the significance of improving intercultural communication competence in promoting cooperation between Chinese and Uzbekistan higher education is summarised, and suggestions and prospects for future research are put forward.
