Time seems to be the sand between the fingers, passing quietly along the gap. During my four years at UIC, I had a lot of thoughts from strangeness to familiarity and then to parting. UIC's comfortable living environment, teachers' teaching in fun, superior learning atmosphere and vigorous campus all let me deeply appreciate the charm of higher education. UIC’s English teaching mode makes me quickly integrate into international education. One after another group projects let me know the importance of teamwork, all of which lay a solid foundation for my further study abroad. UIC's life is full of surprises and challenges, which help me grow rapidly. Thank UIC for giving me great support and help, making me a better myself.

It is my fast-growth four years while I am studying at UIC. Liberal Arts spirit cultivates my international vision and independent personality; Whole Person Education brings me more sense of responsibility for the world; Free Electives Courses enable me to have an interdisciplinary background; a variety of group projects and whole-English teaching bring me unique competitiveness in both internship interview and postgraduate application.


At UIC, I met many excellent teachers, who played the role of guide for my four years, gave me the greatest support and encouragement, and made me persist when I was self-doubting. At the same time, the four-year accounting study at UIC has laid a solid foundation for me and improved my independent thinking and research ability, logic, and expression ability. Thanks to the diverse culture of UIC, it offers us infinite possibilities, let me constantly explore myself in different fields, breakthrough myself, and luckily find my passion.

Since I came to UIC, many people have asked me what liberal arts education in UIC has taught me in the past four years. I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Finally, four years later, I can give my answer. Liberal arts education does not refer to the improvement of skills or grades in any particular area, but to the continuous improvement of my personality, so that I can develop fully: it is the perseverance to stay up all night to catch up DDL, the challenge to the limit of five final exams in three days, the teamwork to participate in the dragon boat race, the overall responsibility to act as a peer mentor, the smooth talk when communication with professors, the confidence when doing presentations, and the constant growth when getting along with friends… It is often said that a person’s success cannot be achieved without “the help of four” -- individual efforts, superior guidance, assistance, and supervision. In UIC, especially as a student of the accounting department, I can always see these four figures, helping accounting students of UIC to achieve success. During the June graduation season, bless my classmates, especially you the person who has made me flutter, a brilliant future, and a wonderful journey!

Time flies. Looking back on the past four years, I am glad that I made the right choice.


UIC has provided me with an up-to-date and international platform for growth and allowed me to develop both my professional knowledge and my comprehensive abilities like time management, emotional and stress management, communication skills, and teamwork. In addition, the rich and diverse practical activities, such as the leadership training camp, being a dream mentor of Teach for China, and volunteer service course tutor, have helped me to develop into a "whole person" and further shaped my open mindset personality.


At the same time, I have also benefited from the whole-person education programs. Emotional Intelligence has enabled me to become more precise in my perception of various emotions, further enhancing my control over my own emotions and my empathy for others. Volunteer service has inspired me a strong sense of social responsibility. Besides, Chinese culture and language courses have deepened my understanding of Chinese traditional culture. All these courses have secretly shaped my civic consciousnesses, inspired my lifelong learning, and cumulated my independent thinking and problem-solving ability, which I believe are the most important skills a person needs in today's dynamic society. And UIC has provided me with many opportunities to improve.


Thanks to UIC, I meet my unknown self and become better. Finally, I wish UIC better and better.

I selected Accounting as my major 13 years ago as I believed it is promising and interesting. I became more mature and independent after four years of study at UIC-DBM. I learned more than just professional knowledge, I came to understand how to think critically, how to do better teamwork, and how to manage time and work more effectively. After graduating from UIC, I went to the US to pursue my master's degree. After that, I came back to Macau for my Ph.D. degree. Although I had little research experience at UIC, all the skills I gained such as critical thinking and academic writing set a solid foundation for my academic life. I started my career as an Assistant Professor at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2021 to continue my work in academia. As every university faculty, I will teach, undertake academic research, and supervise graduate students in the future.

The reason why I chose BA in Accounting at UIC is that I wanted to experience something different while challenging for my bachelor's study. I am glad I made this decision as my English improved, and my international horizons were built during my undergrad studies.   From participating in group projects and business case competitions, my presentation and interaction skills are enhanced, and my business knowledge is accumulated. Teaching faculties at DBM have close relationships with students due to the small class size and they are always in the position to help us. They also have rich knowledge about the real business world as well as research. My research interests are exactly triggered by doing research projects with them. Their meticulous care and solid research skills motivated me to pursue a Ph.D. degree and be a university teacher ultimately. Honestly, studying is not an easy thing at UIC as the school has a high requirement for students and teachers usually design a challenging course syllabus. I struggled, but I am grateful for this tough process now since it helps me to work under pressure. The ability to work under pressure is very crucial for doing a Ph.D.. Regarding my Ph.D. studies, I plan to do research on the topics of REITS, residential Real Estate, and mortgage loans in the next few years. After graduation, I wish to join a research school and publish papers in decent journals.

There is always a strong learning atmosphere in Accounting major. In addition to teaching professional accounting skills, teachers will also share real business cases to help students cultivate their ability of critical thinking and establish a mature value system. During the group discussion after class, the students inspired each other in the brainstorming to make full use of their strengths and maximize the team benefits. The accumulation of knowledge and improvement of ability in these weekdays made me very useful when participating in the 2016 HSBC/University of Hong Kong Asia Pacific Business Case Competition.

UIC has a wide range of courses, rich activity organizations, pays attention to quality education, develops an international vision and emphasizes the care of teachers, students and students. Here, we can not only systematically learn professional knowledge, but also promote the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical beauty and enhance personality charm.

Not only is the atmosphere of English teaching, but also our alma mater provides many opportunities to broaden our horizons and exercise ourselves, so that we can discover and tap our potential. In addition to studying in the University, some top overseas universities and the campus of Hong Kong headquarters can apply for credit transfer courses. During my sophomore summer vacation, I participated in the summer course of the University of Victoria. While learning new knowledge, I also gained a lot of experience in studying abroad. In my after-school life, I participated in a variety of community activities, such as serving as a volunteer in Chuanglian Charity Society and a minister and musician in iMusic music club. These experiences not only strengthened my determination to study professional knowledge in overseas colleges and universities, but also helped me find a balance between study and after-school life in the busy semester.

The biggest advantage of UIC is to provide a higher platform for students to study abroad. Students can apply higher-level and well-known universities in the postgraduate stage. If to take the bachelor degree course in many domestic universities, because of lacking of the all-English learning environment, student might encounter some more difficulties in adapting the life abroad. Compared with that, UIC students could have developed a better ability in using English. At the same time, students are trained with their ability to withstand the pressure due to the tight schedule. So we have learned how to manage time more efficiently, and to make plans so to finish the tasks in an orderly way during the busy final week.

What I can't forget are the careful and responsible teachers, the self-study room with lights on at the middle and final weeks, and the students who work hard to make progress together. Not only is the atmosphere of English teaching, but also our alma mater provides many opportunities to broaden our horizons and exercise ourselves, so that we can discover and tap our potential. In addition to studying in the University, some top overseas universities and the campus of Hong Kong headquarters can apply for credit transfer courses. During my sophomore summer vacation, I participated in the summer course of the University of Victoria. While learning new knowledge, I also gained a lot of experience in studying abroad. In my after-school life, I participated in a variety of community activities, such as serving as a volunteer in Chuanglian Charity Society and a minister and musician in iMusic music club. These experiences not only strengthened my determination to study professional knowledge in overseas colleges and universities, but also helped me find a balance between study and after-school life in the busy semester. Thank you for your help in the past four years and wish your alma mater better and better!

The biggest advantage of UIC is to provide a higher platform for students to study abroad. Students can apply higher-level and well-known universities in the postgraduate stage. If to take the bachelor degree course in many domestic universities, because of lacking of the all-English learning environment, student might encounter some more difficulties in adapting the life abroad. Compared with that, UIC students could have developed a better ability in using English. At the same time, students are trained with their ability to withstand the pressure due to the tight schedule. So we have learned how to manage time more efficiently, and to make plans so to finish the tasks in an orderly way during the busy final week.

Under the learning environment at UIC, my horizon expanded a lot. And I got a lot of help and support from UIC while applying for further studying at foreign universities. I remember that since year 1 I have gained a preliminary understanding of the studying life at foreign universities through the communication with our UIC English teachers. It’s also the year that I started preparing for the exams and materials of master degree course. During the summer break of my sophomore year, I joined the UIC summer exchange programme and took courses in Cornell University. The learning experience at a world-class university helps me with my application and have strengthened my motivation. During the winter break of the semester, I have passed the TOEFL test through taking the courses held by UIC. I have also spent effort in learning GRE during the last semester of my school life at UIC.

I am grateful for the opportunity to review my school life at UIC. I think all success comes from a rational and mature mentality, and I haven't fully achieved it myself yet. Truly mature people are those who can find out their own weaknesses and won’t be pleased with any small achievements. So to develop a mature mindset, you need to understand your weaknesses and be humble. I believe the time when you truly understand what I said above, you will get endless motivation to find ways in planning your future and pursuing your dreams. Good Luck.

Since I came to UIC, many people have asked me what liberal arts education in UIC has taught me in the past four years. I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Finally, four years later, I can give my answer. Liberal arts education does not refer to the improvement of skills or grades in any particular area, but to the continuous improvement of my personality, so that I can develop fully: it is the perseverance to stay up all night to catch up DDL, the challenge to the limit of five final exams in three days, the teamwork to participate in the dragon boat race, the overall responsibility to act as a peer mentor, the smooth talk when communication with professors, the confidence when doing presentations, and the constant growth when getting along with friends… It is often said that a person’s success cannot be achieved without “the help of four” -- individual efforts, superior guidance, assistance, and supervision. In UIC, especially as a student of the accounting department, I can always see these four figures, helping accounting students of UIC to achieve success. During the June graduation season, bless my classmates, especially you the person who has made me flutter, a brilliant future, and a wonderful journey!

Time flies. Looking back on the past four years, I am glad that I made the right choice.


UIC has provided me with an up-to-date and international platform for growth and allowed me to develop both my professional knowledge and my comprehensive abilities like time management, emotional and stress management, communication skills, and teamwork. In addition, the rich and diverse practical activities, such as the leadership training camp, being a dream mentor of Teach for China, and volunteer service course tutor, have helped me to develop into a "whole person" and further shaped my open mindset personality.


At the same time, I have also benefited from the whole-person education programs. Emotional Intelligence has enabled me to become more precise in my perception of various emotions, further enhancing my control over my own emotions and my empathy for others. Volunteer service has inspired me a strong sense of social responsibility. Besides, Chinese culture and language courses have deepened my understanding of Chinese traditional culture. All these courses have secretly shaped my civic consciousnesses, inspired my lifelong learning, and cumulated my independent thinking and problem-solving ability, which I believe are the most important skills a person needs in today's dynamic society. And UIC has provided me with many opportunities to improve.


Thanks to UIC, I meet my unknown self and become better. Finally, I wish UIC better and better.

I selected Accounting as my major 13 years ago as I believed it is promising and interesting. I became more mature and independent after four years of study at UIC-DBM. I learned more than just professional knowledge, I came to understand how to think critically, how to do better teamwork, and how to manage time and work more effectively. After graduating from UIC, I went to the US to pursue my master's degree. After that, I came back to Macau for my Ph.D. degree. Although I had little research experience at UIC, all the skills I gained such as critical thinking and academic writing set a solid foundation for my academic life. I started my career as an Assistant Professor at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2021 to continue my work in academia. As every university faculty, I will teach, undertake academic research, and supervise graduate students in the future.

The reason why I chose BA in Accounting at UIC is that I wanted to experience something different while challenging for my bachelor's study. I am glad I made this decision as my English improved, and my international horizons were built during my undergrad studies.   From participating in group projects and business case competitions, my presentation and interaction skills are enhanced, and my business knowledge is accumulated. Teaching faculties at DBM have close relationships with students due to the small class size and they are always in the position to help us. They also have rich knowledge about the real business world as well as research. My research interests are exactly triggered by doing research projects with them. Their meticulous care and solid research skills motivated me to pursue a Ph.D. degree and be a university teacher ultimately. Honestly, studying is not an easy thing at UIC as the school has a high requirement for students and teachers usually design a challenging course syllabus. I struggled, but I am grateful for this tough process now since it helps me to work under pressure. The ability to work under pressure is very crucial for doing a Ph.D.. Regarding my Ph.D. studies, I plan to do research on the topics of REITS, residential Real Estate, and mortgage loans in the next few years. After graduation, I wish to join a research school and publish papers in decent journals.

There is always a strong learning atmosphere in Accounting major. In addition to teaching professional accounting skills, teachers will also share real business cases to help students cultivate their ability of critical thinking and establish a mature value system. During the group discussion after class, the students inspired each other in the brainstorming to make full use of their strengths and maximize the team benefits. The accumulation of knowledge and improvement of ability in these weekdays made me very useful when participating in the 2016 HSBC/University of Hong Kong Asia Pacific Business Case Competition. I'm very happy to choose the major of accounting at UIC. I can get the careful guidance of rigorous and approachable teachers and grow up with students with similar interests.

I selected Accounting as my major 13 years ago as I believed it is promising and interesting. I became more mature and independent after four years of study at UIC-DBM. I learned more than just professional knowledge, I came to understand how to think critically, how to do better teamwork, and how to manage time and work more effectively. After graduating from UIC, I went to the US to pursue my master's degree. After that, I came back to Macau for my Ph.D. degree. Although I had little research experience at UIC, all the skills I gained such as critical thinking and academic writing set a solid foundation for my academic life. I started my career as an Assistant Professor at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2021 to continue my work in academia. As every university faculty, I will teach, undertake academic research, and supervise graduate students in the future.

The reason why I chose BA in Accounting at UIC is that I wanted to experience something different while challenging for my bachelor's study. I am glad I made this decision as my English improved, and my international horizons were built during my undergrad studies.   From participating in group projects and business case competitions, my presentation and interaction skills are enhanced, and my business knowledge is accumulated. Teaching faculties at DBM have close relationships with students due to the small class size and they are always in the position to help us. They also have rich knowledge about the real business world as well as research. My research interests are exactly triggered by doing research projects with them. Their meticulous care and solid research skills motivated me to pursue a Ph.D. degree and be a university teacher ultimately. Honestly, studying is not an easy thing at UIC as the school has a high requirement for students and teachers usually design a challenging course syllabus. I struggled, but I am grateful for this tough process now since it helps me to work under pressure. The ability to work under pressure is very crucial for doing a Ph.D.. Regarding my Ph.D. studies, I plan to do research on the topics of REITS, residential Real Estate, and mortgage loans in the next few years. After graduation, I wish to join a research school and publish papers in decent journals.

There is always a strong learning atmosphere in Accounting major. In addition to teaching professional accounting skills, teachers will also share real business cases to help students cultivate their ability of critical thinking and establish a mature value system. During the group discussion after class, the students inspired each other in the brainstorming to make full use of their strengths and maximize the team benefits. The accumulation of knowledge and improvement of ability in these weekdays made me very useful when participating in the 2016 HSBC/University of Hong Kong Asia Pacific Business Case Competition. I'm very happy to choose the major of accounting at UIC. I can get the careful guidance of rigorous and approachable teachers and grow up with students with similar interests.

Thanks to my alma mater UIC, I can insist on paying equal attention to learning and activities during my university, and constantly improve my professional knowledge and comprehensive quality. In terms of study, I get a first-class scholarship or a second-class scholarship every year. Junior went to the United States for a semester and got a full a GPA. In terms of activities, I joined the outreach Department of the university student union, the university debate team, the University Orchestra, taekwondo society and other organizations. I also participated in the Zhuhai University student speech competition on behalf of UIC and won awards.


UIC has a wide range of courses, rich activity organizations, pays attention to quality education, develops an international vision and emphasizes the care of teachers, students and students. Here, we can not only systematically learn professional knowledge, but also promote the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical beauty and enhance personality charm. UIC has a heavy learning task, fierce competition among students and it is not easy to get high marks. Therefore, the four-year study in university is generally tired, but it must benefit a lot. It can lay a solid foundation for further study abroad. I am happy in it.

The English teaching environment and the atmosphere of mutual help among students can not only rapidly improve our professional knowledge, but also make us aware of the importance of teamwork.


We left footprints in the shade of trees. We ate in the canteen, the figure in the study room is still clear, and our breath is filled in the library.

Unconsciously, I spent four years in UIC, which has a fast and strong learning pace. What I can't forget are the careful and responsible teachers, the self-study room with lights on at the middle and final weeks, and the students who work hard to make progress together. Not only is the atmosphere of English teaching, but also our alma mater provides many opportunities to broaden our horizons and exercise ourselves, so that we can discover and tap our potential. In addition to studying in the University, some top overseas universities and the campus of Hong Kong headquarters can apply for credit transfer courses. During my sophomore summer vacation, I participated in the summer course of the University of Victoria. While learning new knowledge, I also gained a lot of experience in studying abroad. In my after-school life, I participated in a variety of community activities, such as serving as a volunteer in Chuanglian Charity Society and a minister and musician in iMusic music club. These experiences not only strengthened my determination to study professional knowledge in overseas colleges and universities, but also helped me find a balance between study and after-school life in the busy semester. Thank you for your help in the past four years and wish your alma mater better and better!

The biggest advantage of UIC is to provide a higher platform for students to study abroad. Students can apply higher-level and well-known universities in the postgraduate stage. If to take the bachelor degree course in many domestic universities, because of lacking of the all-English learning environment, student might encounter some more difficulties in adapting the life abroad. Compared with that, UIC students could have developed a better ability in using English. At the same time, students are trained with their ability to withstand the pressure due to the tight schedule. So we have learned how to manage time more efficiently, and to make plans so to finish the tasks in an orderly way during the busy final week.

Since I came to UIC, many people have asked me what liberal arts education in UIC has taught me in the past four years. I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Finally, four years later, I can give my answer. Liberal arts education does not refer to the improvement of skills or grades in any particular area, but to the continuous improvement of my personality, so that I can develop fully: it is the perseverance to stay up all night to catch up DDL, the challenge to the limit of five final exams in three days, the teamwork to participate in the dragon boat race, the overall responsibility to act as a peer mentor, the smooth talk when communication with professors, the confidence when doing presentations, and the constant growth when getting along with friends… It is often said that a person’s success cannot be achieved without “the help of four” -- individual efforts, superior guidance, assistance, and supervision. In UIC, especially as a student of the accounting department, I can always see these four figures, helping accounting students of UIC to achieve success. During the June graduation season, bless my classmates, especially you the person who has made me flutter, a brilliant future, and a wonderful journey!

Time flies. Looking back on the past four years, I am glad that I made the right choice.


UIC has provided me with an up-to-date and international platform for growth and allowed me to develop both my professional knowledge and my comprehensive abilities like time management, emotional and stress management, communication skills, and teamwork. In addition, the rich and diverse practical activities, such as the leadership training camp, being a dream mentor of Teach for China, and volunteer service course tutor, have helped me to develop into a "whole person" and further shaped my open mindset personality.


At the same time, I have also benefited from the whole-person education programs. Emotional Intelligence has enabled me to become more precise in my perception of various emotions, further enhancing my control over my own emotions and my empathy for others. Volunteer service has inspired me a strong sense of social responsibility. Besides, Chinese culture and language courses have deepened my understanding of Chinese traditional culture. All these courses have secretly shaped my civic consciousnesses, inspired my lifelong learning, and cumulated my independent thinking and problem-solving ability, which I believe are the most important skills a person needs in today's dynamic society. And UIC has provided me with many opportunities to improve.


Thanks to UIC, I meet my unknown self and become better. Finally, I wish UIC better and better.

By that time, I was only 18 years old. During the four years at UIC, I have worked hard to finish school. I have met a lot of interesting people and have broaden my horizons. I grew up with UIC step by step along with success and failure. Wishing that UIC becomes better and better.

I am grateful for the opportunity to review my school life at UIC. I think all success comes from a rational and mature mentality, and I haven't fully achieved it myself yet. Truly mature people are those who can find out their own weaknesses and won’t be pleased with any small achievements. So to develop a mature mindset, you need to understand your weaknesses and be humble. I believe the time when you truly understand what I said above, you will get endless motivation to find ways in planning your future and pursuing your dreams. Good Luck.

Since I came to UIC, many people have asked me what liberal arts education in UIC has taught me in the past four years. I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Finally, four years later, I can give my answer. Liberal arts education does not refer to the improvement of skills or grades in any particular area, but to the continuous improvement of my personality, so that I can develop fully: it is the perseverance to stay up all night to catch up DDL, the challenge to the limit of five final exams in three days, the teamwork to participate in the dragon boat race, the overall responsibility to act as a peer mentor, the smooth talk when communication with professors, the confidence when doing presentations, and the constant growth when getting along with friends… It is often said that a person’s success cannot be achieved without “the help of four” -- individual efforts, superior guidance, assistance, and supervision. In UIC, especially as a student of the accounting department, I can always see these four figures, helping accounting students of UIC to achieve success. During the June graduation season, bless my classmates, especially you the person who has made me flutter, a brilliant future, and a wonderful journey!

Time flies. Looking back on the past four years, I am glad that I made the right choice.


UIC has provided me with an up-to-date and international platform for growth and allowed me to develop both my professional knowledge and my comprehensive abilities like time management, emotional and stress management, communication skills, and teamwork. In addition, the rich and diverse practical activities, such as the leadership training camp, being a dream mentor of Teach for China, and volunteer service course tutor, have helped me to develop into a "whole person" and further shaped my open mindset personality.


At the same time, I have also benefited from the whole-person education programs. Emotional Intelligence has enabled me to become more precise in my perception of various emotions, further enhancing my control over my own emotions and my empathy for others. Volunteer service has inspired me a strong sense of social responsibility. Besides, Chinese culture and language courses have deepened my understanding of Chinese traditional culture. All these courses have secretly shaped my civic consciousnesses, inspired my lifelong learning, and cumulated my independent thinking and problem-solving ability, which I believe are the most important skills a person needs in today's dynamic society. And UIC has provided me with many opportunities to improve.


Thanks to UIC, I meet my unknown self and become better. Finally, I wish UIC better and better.

I selected Accounting as my major 13 years ago as I believed it is promising and interesting. I became more mature and independent after four years of study at UIC-DBM. I learned more than just professional knowledge, I came to understand how to think critically, how to do better teamwork, and how to manage time and work more effectively. After graduating from UIC, I went to the US to pursue my master's degree. After that, I came back to Macau for my Ph.D. degree. Although I had little research experience at UIC, all the skills I gained such as critical thinking and academic writing set a solid foundation for my academic life. I started my career as an Assistant Professor at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2021 to continue my work in academia. As every university faculty, I will teach, undertake academic research, and supervise graduate students in the future.

The reason why I chose BA in Accounting at UIC is that I wanted to experience something different while challenging for my bachelor's study. I am glad I made this decision as my English improved, and my international horizons were built during my undergrad studies.   From participating in group projects and business case competitions, my presentation and interaction skills are enhanced, and my business knowledge is accumulated. Teaching faculties at DBM have close relationships with students due to the small class size and they are always in the position to help us. They also have rich knowledge about the real business world as well as research. My research interests are exactly triggered by doing research projects with them. Their meticulous care and solid research skills motivated me to pursue a Ph.D. degree and be a university teacher ultimately. Honestly, studying is not an easy thing at UIC as the school has a high requirement for students and teachers usually design a challenging course syllabus. I struggled, but I am grateful for this tough process now since it helps me to work under pressure. The ability to work under pressure is very crucial for doing a Ph.D.. Regarding my Ph.D. studies, I plan to do research on the topics of REITS, residential Real Estate, and mortgage loans in the next few years. After graduation, I wish to join a research school and publish papers in decent journals.

The biggest advantage of UIC is to provide a higher platform for students to study abroad. Students can apply higher-level and well-known universities in the postgraduate stage. If to take the bachelor degree course in many domestic universities, because of lacking of the all-English learning environment, student might encounter some more difficulties in adapting the life abroad. Compared with that, UIC students could have developed a better ability in using English. At the same time, students are trained with their ability to withstand the pressure due to the tight schedule. So we have learned how to manage time more efficiently, and to make plans so to finish the tasks in an orderly way during the busy final week.

I also participated in the Zhuhai University student speech competition on behalf of UIC and won awards.


UIC has a wide range of courses, rich activity organizations, pays attention to quality education, develops an international vision and emphasizes the care of teachers, students and students. Here, we can not only systematically learn professional knowledge, but also promote the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical beauty and enhance personality charm. UIC has a heavy learning task, fierce competition among students and it is not easy to get high marks. Therefore, the four-year study in university is generally tired, but it must benefit a lot. It can lay a solid foundation for further study abroad. I am happy in it.

The four years of University passed in a flash. The memories are all in front of me. In the best time, I spent the most passionate years with a group of the most lovely people on the most beautiful campus. Looking back on UIC's campus life, I was full of challenges and harvest. Intense study and rich campus life enable each UICer to make all-round progress during the University, and truly achieve the liberal education advocated by UIC. The English teaching environment and the atmosphere of mutual help among students can not only rapidly improve our professional knowledge, but also make us aware of the importance of teamwork.


We left footprints in the shade of trees. We ate in the canteen, the figure in the study room is still clear, and our breath is filled in the library. Although I have graduated from UIC, my memory still lingers in my mind. I look forward to seeing my friends again in other years, and wish UIC more brilliance!

Four years of UIC life is fleeting and vivid. Now, I'm really glad that I chose UIC as the starting point of the University. There are too many high-quality resources here, whether experienced professors, students with active thinking, or various rich and interesting competitions and activities inside and outside the school, all encourage me to become a more self-discipline, planned and targeted person all the time. The step-by-step curriculum has helped me lay a solid accounting knowledge framework and complement each other in my study of ACCA.


The intense study life also makes me a person who knows how to allocate time reasonably, balance learning, extracurricular learning and competition. Most importantly, UIC's education mode borders on the world, which also makes me comfortable when I adapt to my study and life abroad. In short, I am very grateful to my alma mater, UIC. I have made a group of close friends here. I am also lucky to communicate with many excellent professors, participate in many interesting competitions to exercise myself, and let me go to a university for postgraduate study that I didn't reach four years ago.

Unconsciously, I spent four years in UIC, which has a fast and strong learning pace. What I can't forget are the careful and responsible teachers, the self-study room with lights on at the middle and final weeks, and the students who work hard to make progress together. Not only is the atmosphere of English teaching, but also our alma mater provides many opportunities to broaden our horizons and exercise ourselves, so that we can discover and tap our potential. In addition to studying in the University, some top overseas universities and the campus of Hong Kong headquarters can apply for credit transfer courses. During my sophomore summer vacation, I participated in the summer course of the University of Victoria. While learning new knowledge, I also gained a lot of experience in studying abroad. In my after-school life, I participated in a variety of community activities, such as serving as a volunteer in Chuanglian Charity Society and a minister and musician in iMusic music club. These experiences not only strengthened my determination to study professional knowledge in overseas colleges and universities, but also helped me find a balance between study and after-school life in the busy semester. Thank you for your help in the past four years and wish your alma mater better and better!

The biggest advantage of UIC is to provide a higher platform for students to study abroad. Students can apply higher-level and well-known universities in the postgraduate stage. If to take the bachelor degree course in many domestic universities, because of lacking of the all-English learning environment, student might encounter some more difficulties in adapting the life abroad. Compared with that, UIC students could have developed a better ability in using English. At the same time, students are trained with their ability to withstand the pressure due to the tight schedule. So we have learned how to manage time more efficiently, and to make plans so to finish the tasks in an orderly way during the busy final week.

Since I came to UIC, many people have asked me what liberal arts education in UIC has taught me in the past four years. I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Finally, four years later, I can give my answer. Liberal arts education does not refer to the improvement of skills or grades in any particular area, but to the continuous improvement of my personality, so that I can develop fully: it is the perseverance to stay up all night to catch up DDL, the challenge to the limit of five final exams in three days, the teamwork to participate in the dragon boat race, the overall responsibility to act as a peer mentor, the smooth talk when communication with professors, the confidence when doing presentations, and the constant growth when getting along with friends… It is often said that a person’s success cannot be achieved without “the help of four” -- individual efforts, superior guidance, assistance, and supervision. In UIC, especially as a student of the accounting department, I can always see these four figures, helping accounting students of UIC to achieve success. During the June graduation season, bless my classmates, especially you the person who has made me flutter, a brilliant future, and a wonderful journey!

Time flies. Looking back on the past four years, I am glad that I made the right choice.


UIC has provided me with an up-to-date and international platform for growth and allowed me to develop both my professional knowledge and my comprehensive abilities like time management, emotional and stress management, communication skills, and teamwork. In addition, the rich and diverse practical activities, such as the leadership training camp, being a dream mentor of Teach for China, and volunteer service course tutor, have helped me to develop into a "whole person" and further shaped my open mindset personality.


At the same time, I have also benefited from the whole-person education programs. Emotional Intelligence has enabled me to become more precise in my perception of various emotions, further enhancing my control over my own emotions and my empathy for others. Volunteer service has inspired me a strong sense of social responsibility. Besides, Chinese culture and language courses have deepened my understanding of Chinese traditional culture. All these courses have secretly shaped my civic consciousnesses, inspired my lifelong learning, and cumulated my independent thinking and problem-solving ability, which I believe are the most important skills a person needs in today's dynamic society. And UIC has provided me with many opportunities to improve.


Thanks to UIC, I meet my unknown self and become better. Finally, I wish UIC better and better.

I selected Accounting as my major 13 years ago as I believed it is promising and interesting. I became more mature and independent after four years of study at UIC-DBM. I learned more than just professional knowledge, I came to understand how to think critically, how to do better teamwork, and how to manage time and work more effectively. After graduating from UIC, I went to the US to pursue my master's degree. After that, I came back to Macau for my Ph.D. degree. Although I had little research experience at UIC, all the skills I gained such as critical thinking and academic writing set a solid foundation for my academic life. I started my career as an Assistant Professor at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2021 to continue my work in academia. As every university faculty, I will teach, undertake academic research, and supervise graduate students in the future.

The reason why I chose BA in Accounting at UIC is that I wanted to experience something different while challenging for my bachelor's study. I am glad I made this decision as my English improved, and my international horizons were built during my undergrad studies.   From participating in group projects and business case competitions, my presentation and interaction skills are enhanced, and my business knowledge is accumulated. Teaching faculties at DBM have close relationships with students due to the small class size and they are always in the position to help us. They also have rich knowledge about the real business world as well as research. My research interests are exactly triggered by doing research projects with them. Their meticulous care and solid research skills motivated me to pursue a Ph.D. degree and be a university teacher ultimately. Honestly, studying is not an easy thing at UIC as the school has a high requirement for students and teachers usually design a challenging course syllabus. I struggled, but I am grateful for this tough process now since it helps me to work under pressure. The ability to work under pressure is very crucial for doing a Ph.D.. Regarding my Ph.D. studies, I plan to do research on the topics of REITS, residential Real Estate, and mortgage loans in the next few years. After graduation, I wish to join a research school and publish papers in decent journals.
