On April 17, Zheng Anyang, Deputy Party Secretary of the University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB), led a delegation to the School of Economics and Management (SEM) to review academic development, student education, admissions and graduate employment.
Gu Wei, Dean of SEM, delivered a comprehensive report on the School's profile, faculty, academic disciplines, admissions and employment, research and innovation, and achievements during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. He analyzed the opportunities and challenges the School currently faces in admissions and employment, discipline development, and talent recruitment and development, and outlined its priorities and key initiatives for the next stage. Participants then held in-depth discussions on optimizing academic programs, reforming talent cultivation models, and advancing international education.
Zheng spoke highly of the school's work. He emphasized that SEM should seize the significant opportunities arising from the development of USTB's Xiong'an campus and coordinate the upgrading and transformation of academic programs with high-quality, substantive development. He also encouraged the School to strengthen collaboration with relevant organizations both within and beyond the University, make better use of resources from alumni, university-industry partnerships, and university-local government cooperation, and further expand international exchanges and cooperation. These efforts, he noted, would help broaden the School's development opportunities and continuously enhance its educational quality and core competitiveness.
The visiting delegation included Yu Yan, Deputy Director of the Office of Development Planning; Song Hongqing, Deputy Director of the Office of Academic Affairs; He Zhiwei, Vice Dean of the Graduate School; and Liu Xiaojie, Deputy Director of the Admissions and Employment Office.
