As the new academic year commences, the campus is alive with vitality. 2,700 new undergraduate and postgraduate students, dressed in university-designed T-shirts, gathered on campus for orientation. Students participated in the convocation and an array of dynamic orientation activities. This year’s orientation theme, “Embrace Excellence, Unite in Knowledge,” captures the students’ aspirations to leverage their knowledge and skills to excel in academic research, career development, and personal enrichment. The slogan encourages them to embrace new ideas, innovate beyond traditional boundaries, and enhance their creativity throughout their educational journey.
Before the start of the new academic year, students embarked on journeys for educational pursuits, community services, competitions and exhibitions, each brimming with discovery and marvellous moments over the summer. Immersed in diverse cultures, students harvested fresh insights, knowledge, skills and honours. These experiences broadened their perspectives and deepened their appreciation for the world’s rich diversity and interconnectedness.
