A 'varsity of the future' for Macao

China Daily  

Views of the campus of City University of Macau on Taipa Island, the Macao Special Administrative Region. The rector believes that even brief exchanges, apart from students taking the traditional four-year degrees, will enable them to take their experiences in Macao back to their homelands, generating further interest in Macao among students. With the nation's unwavering support, Macao is vigorously moving towards economic diversification that would create fresh momentum for higher education, says Liu. Liu believes the Macao SAR government could enact policies regarding visas and other aspects to help exceptional graduates stay and work in the city, significantly providing a major boost for education. As a hub where scholars and information from across the world converge, Liu believes Macao's diverse cultural landscape can equip students with valuable interpersonal skills, and broaden their perspectives, making it a compelling and cost-effective alternative for more students.
