The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area University Information Technology Director Forum was held at the University of Macau (UM). Themed ‘Challenges and Development of Digital Campus in the New Era’, the forum brought together IT department heads from 20 universities in the Greater Bay Area to exchange ideas on promoting informatisation and IT development in higher education.
Speaking at the event, UM Vice Rector Rui Martins said that the forum provided an opportunity for universities in the Greater Bay Area to share experiences in IT development, promote cooperation and resource sharing, and further enhance their academic and administrative activities. He also mentioned that informatisation will be an important part of the construction of the UM campus in the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin. He expressed hope that the insights shared at the forum would contribute to building a digital campus in the new era.
The forum, which focused on the opportunities and challenges that IT development brings to universities, featured several IT department heads from universities in the Greater Bay Area as guest speakers. They gave insightful presentations on the process of informatisation, the challenges faced, practices of digital transformation, and the application of artificial intelligence at their respective universities. The presentations led participants to explore the future direction of digital campus development and facilitated discussions.
