At the beginning of the symposium, Vice Dean Guo Gongxing extended a warm welcome to the Kyonggi University delegation. The participants then watched the documentary Leading the Future produced by the School, after which Vice Dean Guo gave a detailed introduction to the School’s development. Mr. Huang Rugan emphasized the situation of international exchange and cooperation of the School. Subsequently, Dean Jin Qiyong and Deputy Director Liu Ziyang introduced the development of their graduate school and the university’s international exchange and cooperation respectively. The two sides had an in‑depth discussion on topics such as international exchange, research collaboration, and talent cultivation, and conducted preliminary explorations on cutting‑edge issues including “the integration and application of artificial intelligence in business education.”
During the exchange, the attending scholars unanimously agreed that artificial intelligence is profoundly changing the way business education is conducted at an unprecedented speed. It not only provides richer teaching resources and more advanced teaching methods for business education, but also opens up new paradigms and directions for business teaching and research. The two sides could carry out pragmatic cooperation in areas such as joint curriculum development, joint research, and faculty exchange, so as to jointly cultivate high‑level business talents adapted to the new era. Vice Dean Guo Gongxing pointed out, “As the wave of artificial intelligence sweeps across the globe, business education must keep pace with the times and actively embrace new technologies. We look forward to in-depth cooperation between Shantou University and Kyonggi University in the integration of artificial intelligence and business education, jointly exploring innovative teaching models and talent cultivation mechanisms.”
The visit of the Kyonggi University doctoral delegation has built a sound communication platform for the two universities in the integrated development of AI and business education. Taking this exchange as an an opportunity, the two sides will further strengthen cooperation, jointly promote the innovative development of business education, and contribute to cultivating high level business talents ready for the future intelligent economy era.
