CCE organized an Interdisciplinary Training Program for Students from Capital Normal University

From 4 to 8 August 2025, The University of Macau (UM) Centre for Continuing Education (CCE) organized a training program for students from Capital Normal University. The theme of the program was ” Interdisciplinary Programme – New Media, Arts, AI, STEM and Humanities Education”. A total of 40 undergraduate students from various faculties, majors, and academic years participated.

The five-day training program was rich and intensive. Thematic lectures covered topics such as “Contemporary Expansion of Ink Art Empowered by Digital Technology”, “The Meaning of Education and Cross-Cultural Literacy”, “How Macao is Catching Up – Breakthroughs in the Development of STEM Innovation and Technology Education”, “New Media, Advertising, and Promotional Industries in the Digital Age” and “Big Data and Artificial Intelligence: A Revolutionary Development”.

In addition to lectures, the program also organized on-campus and off-campus visits. Led by public relations student ambassadors, the participants toured the UM Library, the University Gallery, and RC. They also visited SKL-IOTSC to learn about its latest scientific research achievements and development projects. For the off-campus visits, the students went to MGM Cotai for an art appreciation activity, followed by a visit to the Macao Science Center to enjoy a dome screen film and the latest exhibitions.

During the session of final group presentation, the students gave detailed reports on what they had learned over the past few days and created short videos to document the wonderful moments of their study tour in Macao. The participants stated that the training left them with a wonderful impression of Macao and UM, and they hope to have the opportunity to return for further study in the future.

Since 2023, Capital Normal University has selected outstanding students to participate in short-term training at UM annually. CCE will continue to develop more high-quality training programs to promote exchange and cooperation between outstanding mainland universities and the University of Macau.
