Brilliant and blooming. On the evening of September 19th, the opening ceremony and first lesson of the 2023 freshmen of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering were held at Zhihong Hall.

The ceremony was presided over by Zhao Mengying, Deputy Secretary of the College Party Committee.
The opening ceremony of this school year is divided into three chapters: "Wisdom for the Future, Empowerment for Setting Sail, and Youth for the Party". Seven interactive, immersive, theoretical, and practical gold courses are presented to the 2023 freshmen from different perspectives, including "Party Joining Enlightenment Course, Electrical Institute History Course, Model Worker Spirit Course, Professional Development Course, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Practice Course, Patriotic Education Course, and Freshman Ideological and Political Course". The ceremony began with the solemn sound of the national anthem.
Secretary Fan Junhui, titled "Devoting Our Youth to the Dream of Rejuvenation", brought enlightenment education for new students to join the Party and introduced the historical mission of Shanghai as the birthplace of our original aspiration and the city of glory. With the spirit of struggle of the older generation of revolutionaries and scientists such as Li Bai and Qian Xuesen, we call out the call of the times, and with the power of peer models, we hope that everyone will have a youthful heart towards the Party and make contributions to the new era. At the same time, it also issued a call to 2023 freshmen to join the CPC in the birthplace of the Party, and let them practice the youth oath with practical actions.
Dean Li Yuanyuan told the 2023 freshmen about the development process of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. After 45 years of development, the School has become a team of teachers with firm beliefs, noble professional ethics, and excellent business skills, providing a broad stage for students to achieve outstanding development and making sufficient preparations.
Professor Wang Guozhong, the executive vice president of the Artificial Intelligence Industry Research Institute, who is a member of the model worker and the Shanghai model worker spirit promotion group on campus, told about his life experience and hoped that students would become new era college students who are "diligent, realistic, innovative and dedicated" through four years of efforts. And using "iclass" to interact with classmates, everyone left messages expressing the courage to innovate, dare to work hard, and shape themselves into innovative talents.
Associate Professor Wang Yujia, the teacher representative, interpreted the profession for the students and expressed two expectations to the new students. Firstly, we should cherish time, strengthen our foundation, and build a strong spirit to ensure that there are no regrets in the next four years. The second is to have self-discipline, self-learning, self consistency, self-healing, fully exert subjective initiative, and have better development in the new environment.
Zhang Haiming, a graduate of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering in 2023 and currently pursuing a master's degree at East China Normal University, as an alumni representative, sent a message to the new students to "Believe in Your Infinite Possibilities". He sincerely shared his experience and insights from participating in various competitions during his undergraduate studies, urging everyone to believe in themselves, not be afraid of difficulties, start from reality, and work hard to create projects that are beneficial to society and capable of doing practical things.
Retired college student soldier representative Tian Yuxin shared her two-year military career experience with the freshmen with the solemn oath of "Carrying a Pen to Serve in the Army, Not Underestimating Youth", pointing out that each generation has its own mission and responsibility. Through practice and time, she will eventually overcome all difficulties and pursue the realization of her dreams. Even if you shed your old military uniform and step into campus life, you still need to maintain a good work style, truly achieving that your discharge does not fade, and you will not forget your past.
The college's "Green Sound in the Clouds" ideological and political lecturer group is dedicated to creating a "walking classroom" with the theme of "Red Heart Towards the Party, Electricity Based on the Future". Promote the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to the 2023 freshmen, and use digital means to achieve common thinking and frequency with students. The course has the charm of technological development, the insights of senior students, the declaration of rebirth, and the Chinese mindset of a community with a shared future for mankind.
Vice Dean Zhao Xiaoli and Vice Dean Wang Xiaojun have issued appointment certificates to guide students and volunteers. Thank you for their hard work during the welcome period, which made the freshmen feel the warmth of Chengyuan. Vice Dean Gao Yongbin presented books to the students of the "Green Sound in the Clouds" ideological and political lecturer group, hoping that they will continue to tell good stories about China, engineering, and electrical engineering!
Radiant time, all things thrive and grow; Youth aspirations, heading towards a distant future. May all 2023 freshmen embark on a journey of success, ride the wind, set sail, and seize the opportunity!
