Ma Sai, dean of AADTHU, added in his speech that the undergraduate stage is a crucial period for academic enlightenment and the shaping of one's spirit. He noted that the graduation exhibition reflects the students' aesthetic expression, their understanding of complex issues, and their commitment to the spirit of the times and public values.

Qin Chuan, secretary of the CPC AADTHU Committee, said that AADTHU continues to deepen education and teaching reforms, firmly promoting the integration of arts and science as well as interdisciplinary collaboration while balancing technological development with humanistic foundations. He hopes students will transform their professional knowledge into practical power, actively respond to public concerns, promote outstanding Chinese culture, and while inheriting tradition, boldly innovate to become talented artists who lead the trends of the times.

Later, professor Gu Liming, on behalf of the graduate work supervisors, encouraged students to set long-term goals and keep setting goals, so that the spirit of exploration cultivated during their studies will accompany them for life. Graduate representative Gao Xinyuan expressed her determination to serve society and promote national development through art.

The exhibition showcases works characterized by the integration of arts and science and cross-disciplinary innovation, featuring more than 1,600 works by over 260 undergraduate graduates from nine departments — including textile and fashion design, ceramic design, visual communication, environmental art design, industrial design, arts and crafts, information art and design, painting, and sculpture. This also marks the inaugural public exhibition of all undergraduate works at the Tsinghua University Art Museum, a nationally accredited first-class museum.
