A delegation led by Michael Scott, pro-vice-chancellor of the University of Warwick, visited the University of Macau (UM) today (28 August) and was warmly received by Yonghua Song, rector of UM. During the visit, Scott, on behalf of the vice-chancellor and president of the University of Warwick, exchanged a memorandum of cooperation (MOC) with Song, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their international cooperation. Under the MOC, the two universities will establish long-term cooperation in areas such as student exchange, collaborative research, and joint programmes.
Song gave the delegation an overview of UM’s educational offerings, the development plan for its campus in the Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, and its achievements in internationalisation, with a particular focus on the university’s strategies for technological innovation and interdisciplinary talent development. The two parties held in-depth discussions on launching joint programmes and enhancing academic and talent exchange.
The delegation also visited the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and the Faculty of Business Administration. Scott praised UM’s rapid development and engaged in in-depth discussions with faculty representatives on further cooperation.
