Remarkable achievements have been made in various areas in terms of practice and internationalization. In 2018, the first batch of authorizations for doctoral degrees in design were approved. In 2019, authorization for a new professional master's degree was approved and a new doctoral degree later in 2022. The establishment of this design postdoctoral research station will help promote the construction of high-level scientific research teams and produce iconic scientific research results. It will play an important role in cultivating high-level talent in the School.
