China's first educational institute focusing on counterterrorism law has been founded at a university in Northwest China. The move aims to build a pool of legal experts to help China combat terrorism.
The institute was set up by the Northwest University of Political Science and Law in Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi province. It is expected to enroll its first class of undergraduates in spring semester.
The president of the university says to better fight terrorism under new circumstances, China has an urgent and strategic need for a team of qualified experts who have comprehensive knowledge in the field.
Lectures for undergraduate students will include counterterrorism strategies of China and other countries, religion and ethnic affairs.
The institute will also introduce doctoral and master's degree programs in counterterrorism law.
Graduates of the institute will serve as advisers on antiterrorism policy at several levels, including the front-line fight and in the central government.
China is facing intensified terrorism problems as foreign terrorists and extremist groups have stepped up their efforts to target the country. And an increasing number of domestic attacks were found to have been plotted overseas via the Internet.

An unmanned Chinese helicopter has completed its maiden flight from the Great Wall Station in the South Pole and has photographed fauna and flora in the area.
"Polar Hawk-2" was developed by the Beijing Normal University. It can operate for around one hour at a time at an altitude of up to 1,500 meters. The lithium-battery powered aircraft is highly efficient, quiet and has low emissions.
During the one-hour flight, the helicopter took more than 350 high-quality photos. Since the Great Wall Station is located in an area known for its changeable weather, the station lacks clear satellite photos.
The aircraft also photographed animals around the station, including penguins and skua. The photos will also help scientists to know the quantity of greenhouse emissions over Philip Island, providing support for climate change studies.
A researcher with the Chinese Academy of Sciences says China's research and development of unmanned helicopters is among the most advanced in the world.

中国一架无人驾驶直升机在南极长城站完成首飞，并拍摄了该地区的动植物。
“极鹰2号”由北京师范大学研发。该无人直升机单次作业时间约一小时，飞行高度最高可达1500米。这架无人机以锂电池为动力，作业效率高、噪音小、污染少。
无人机经过一小时飞行获取350余幅高质量清晰图片后着陆。由于长城站所在区域天气变化无常，遥感卫星已多年未拍摄到长城站的清晰影像。
此次“极鹰2号”还拍摄了长城站的企鹅和贼鸥等动物。这些照片将帮助科学家了解企鹅岛地区的温室气体排放总量，为研究气候变化提供支持。
中国中科院一名研究员表示，中国在无人直升机上的研究和发展已跻身世界先进行列。
