【 Why CUHK-Tsinghua University Dual Undergraduate Degree Programme in Economics? 】
I love to explore and be the first mover. Living in Macau makes me appreciate and endorse the beauty and prominence of multicultural interactions. As a global citizen, I embrace cultural differences and embrace my Chinese roots. I strive to be someone who finds solutions for the global issues we are facing right now and brings impacts to the world. In Economics, as a prerequisite of specialisation, exchange is needed not just to get rid of surpluses but to mutually benefiting the parties involved and thus resulting in efficiency. Hence, the collaboration between the Chinese University of Hong Kong with the Tsinghua University sets a brilliant example and excellent opportunity for ambitious and talented students to exchange and get the best out of the two cities. Both Beijing and Hong Kong are critical players in the Chinese economy and I cannot wait to explore and take on all the challenges ahead.
In the future, after graduation, I see myself as a bridge between the East and West in the finance and economics career.
