2023: Sailing with confidence, 2024: Reaching new heights!
Looking ahead to 2024, in response to social, economic, and market demands, we will introduce new programs and establish the Faculty of Health Sciences (FHS) to enhance interdisciplinary development. To further drive the internationalization of our university, we will actively recruit exceptional international talents to strengthen our faculty team and continuously strive for teaching excellence. We will foster industry-academia collaboration and promote research development, with the aim of enhancing the academic achievements. Moreover, we will actively facilitate global exchanges among faculty and students, encouraging cross-cultural learning experiences and creating additional platforms for experiential learning and practical training. It is our mission to nurture innovative and versatile high-end professionals who can effectively address the needs of Macao, the Greater Bay Area, and the nation.
Now, let us bring home Rector Jun Liu’s blessings as we celebrate the Year of the Dragon! Happy New Year!
