He mentioned that, with the support of Macao Special Administrative Region Government and people from all walks of life, CityU has developed steadily recently. It completed the planning and capital construction of the "three campuses". It became a city university worthy of its name in geographical and cultural senses. CityU continues to provide specialized personnel to Macao. Its quality of faculty is constantly improving. The comparative advantage of its curriculum system turns prominent gradually. It has set up special degree programs in line with the development of Macao and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Furthermore, it has continuously practiced the "five-in-one" learning model, built multiple learning bases in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and offered language, cultural, and specialized courses together with many international partner universities. Vice Rector Kong Fanqing hoped that more students will study at CityU and experience our excellent learning environment and strong academic atmosphere.
