2012 vision, defining MEEM in five years


Core values


We believe in the following values in guiding our decision-making and to lead us to the future:

  1. Teaching from strength: there should be a strong coupling between research and teaching so that the students will receive world-class education.
  2. Teaching is a privilege: students and parents placed their trust in our hands, and we will honor the trust.
  3. Research excellence: we shall continue to increase the Department's intellectual capitals and academic credentials to foster creativity and innovation to benefit our students as well as to serve as models.
  4. Training of the mind: we will strive to transform the way students think, thinking pattern, and let them become independent and innovative thinkers through classes, research, and practice.
  5. Balancing the academic and practical tracks: as a world-class institution, we shall provide a choice between academic track and practical track, professional paths tailored to the talent of the students.
