It already operates a Confucius Classroom in Mandalay, Myanmar. In India, it is helping Visva-Bharati University to develop its Chine Bhavana. Yunnan University is willing to cooperate with South Asian and Southeast universities in establishing Confucius Institutes.

Yunnan University is now a Study Abroad Training Base of the MOE, an Education Aid Base of the MOE, a Training Base of International Software Talents and a Yunnan Provincial Cultivating Base of International Talents.

The University has invited many internationally famous scholars and experts, entrepreneurs, celebrities and politicians to lecture.

Glauber, Nobel Laureate of Physics, Ambassador of Finland Mr Lars Backstrom, Orlando Ayala, corporate vice president and chairman of emerging businesses at Microsoft, former US ambassador Gary Locke and Buddhist master Hsing Yun have all lectured at Yunnan University.
