This success is due to a series of measures such as institutional incentives, careful preparation, and intensive training. The school began preparing for the competition in September 2021. After months of field research, seminars, and simulation exercises, the participating teachers and students managed to create a number of excellent cases.

Moving forward, the school will continue to promote the integration of scientific research and teaching, continue to incubate high-quality cases, and focus on Chinese practice.
