On the afternoon of March 19, the School of Economics and Management held a special promotion meeting on undergraduate program development and enrollment and employment work in Room B503. Attendees included Dean Ding Zhihua, Deputy Party Secretary Liu Ning, Vice Dean Jiang Hongyan, along with department heads, party branch secretaries, and office directors. The meeting focused on the current situation, challenges, and innovative paths for program development and talent cultivation in the era of digital intelligence.
At the beginning of the meeting, Dean Ding Zhihua emphasized that undergraduate program development and enrollment and employment work form the foundation of the university’s growth. Facing the new landscape where artificial intelligence is reshaping industrial ecosystems, the cultivation of management and economics talent must rapidly adapt to the digital transformation. He called on all programs to restructure curricula, upgrade practical platforms, and deepen industry-education integration to build a talent training system aligned with the needs of the digital economy era.
Deputy Party Secretary Liu Ning presented employment data across different majors and reported on student recruitment efforts in regions such as Zhejiang and Yancheng in Jiangsu Province. She relayed the university’s goals of “improving student quality” and “optimizing employment structures” as discussed in the university-wide enrollment and employment conference. For the Class of 2025, she proposed building a holistic employment support system featuring “full participation, continuous guidance, and comprehensive services.” She also highlighted the importance of internship base development and school-enterprise cooperation to improve both the employment rate and employment quality of graduates.
Vice Dean Jiang Hongyan outlined the current status and key challenges of undergraduate program development, including student major selection, the modernization of digital-intelligent teaching methods, and the optimization of training programs. She explained that the university is carrying out digital profiling and dynamic monitoring of programs, using indicators such as program demand, student quality, training outcomes, and employment data to conduct tiered evaluations. She pointed out that in response to the new challenges posed by digital transformation, the School will use evaluations to drive program development, with a focus on textbook innovation, smart course design, international collaboration, and dual-degree programs, thus promoting connotative development in undergraduate education.
In his concluding remarks, Dean Ding Zhihua stressed the importance of establishing a program development system centered on a “dual-leadership model” led by department heads and party secretaries. He also called for the improvement of a full-chain linkage mechanism connecting enrollment, education, and employment. This meeting clarified the School’s direction of “digital empowerment and distinctive development” and laid a solid foundation for building a modernized talent training system in economics and management. All departments expressed their commitment to advancing follow-up work in line with the meeting's goals and to enhancing program development and the quality of talent cultivation.
