" Zhang Lei, a teacher from Free University of Brussels in Belgium said that, "We are forced to cancel many practical and hands-on courses. For example, my plan for the course this semester was to bring students on a tour in EU institutes and big companies, as well as in an exchange forum with front-line management and technical personnel.
