Through the practical validation of a complete educational cycle, the achievements of China-Belarus cooperative education have received high praise from Tian Xuejun, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Education of China, and Alena Starovoitova, First Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Education of Belarus. In the initial assessment of China's 'Double First-Class' initiative, the Institute was praised for its significant achievements in cooperation with Belarus and a notable enhancement in its educational capabilities. In February 2022, the achievement was awarded the First Prize for Excellent Teaching Achievement at Dalian University of Technology.

DUT-BSU Joint Institute has made a positive influence at home and abroad and drawn widespread attention.

This teaching achievement award is the result of the creative efforts of the entire faculty and students of the institute, who have long been committed to research, exploration, and practice in educational reform.
