2021年2月19日，清华经管学院管理硕士（简称MiM）项目春季学期管理硕士国际联盟（简称CEMS）线上迎新会如期举办。由于疫情，这是清华CEMS项目首次以线上方式迎接来自全世界各地的CEMS交换生。本次活动邀请了学术主任孙亚程老师、整合实践课程任课教师陈昊老师与郝洁老师、MiM项目经理杨淑玲老师和主管教学的王婧老师、以及在校生代表们，为来自伦敦政治经济学院、法国巴黎高等商学院、新加坡国立大学等12所CEMS全球成员院校的20位交换生，介绍清华大学、经管学院、CEMS项目和预告本学期丰富的线上活动，并分享线上学习实践经验。

On February 19th, a virtual launch event of Tsinghua CEMS program was held to welcome its newest cohort of 2021 Spring CEMS students from all over the world. Launch event is the CEMS orientation for all CEMS students for a new term. Because of the pandemic, this was the first time to welcome CEMS exchange students virtually. Twenty incoming students from 12 member schools of CEMS (including HEC, LSE, NUS, etc.), together with Tsinghua CEMS Academic Director SUN Yacheng, Academic Tutors of CEMS Business Projects CHEN Hao and HAO Jie, Program Manager YANG Shuling, Program academic coordinator WANG Jing, and senior students of Master in Management program attended the event. Histories of Tsinghua University, School of Economics and Management, and the Tsinghua CEMS program were introduced to the incoming students. The senior students of Master in Management program shared their experience of online study and virtual campus life.

会上，学术主任孙亚程老师代表项目向同学们表示欢迎，并为同学们介绍了清华经管学院的历史沿革与发展现状，以及CEMS项目中各具特色的专业教师们。此外，由于疫情期间采取线上教学的方式，部分同学不得不因时差在深夜上课。孙老师有针对性地分享了自己的上课经验，例如增加与线上同学的互动沟通。同时，孙老师鼓励线上上课的同学们主动加强与其他老师同学的交流，以达到更好的学习效果。

The orientation started with the introduction of Tsinghua University, School of Economics and Management’s history and development, its unique CEMS program, and its diversified faculty group members by CEMS Academic Director SUN Yacheng. During the pandemic, the program is offering hybrid teaching, i.e., online and offline to all students. Prof. Sun shared his suggestions about this, “Online course seems difficult for students across different time zones. Last semester, I increased the frequency of interaction deliberately with online students. Meanwhile, your own attendance is key. To maintain a good relationship with TA, other students and the course professor are necessary for a better learning outcome.”

清华经管学院是CEMS在中国大陆的唯一成员院校，曾荣获CEMS 2017-2018学年最佳院校奖项。“与企业接轨，在实践中成长”成为了清华经管学院MiM项目的一大特色。对于本学期在线上开展的CEMS必修课之一整合实践项目，管理硕士项目经理杨淑玲老师、整合实践课程任课教师陈昊老师与郝洁老师详细介绍了整合实践项目，以及相应的课程优化措施，确保同学们即使是线上参与实践，仍能借此机会直接与麦肯锡、怡和集团、历峰集团、卡地亚等跨国公司合作，为这些企业提出的基于实际商业场景的课题建言献策，与其公司员工一道推动项目落地。

As the first and the only business school with full CEMS membership in Chinese mainland, Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management was awarded the CEMS School of the Year 2017-2018. "Connection with enterprises and growth in practice" is one of the features of the Master in Management program of Tsinghua School of Economics and Management. Program Manager YANG Shuling, Academic tutors of Business Project CHEN Hao and HAO Jie introduced the upcoming online Business Projects, through which students will gain insights into business operation and application of management knowledge. This semester, students will have the opportunity to dive into companies like McKinsey，Jardine Matheson，Richmond，Cartier, etc., providing solutions on business projects proposed by enterprises, and implement the projects together with company employees.

此外，清华CEMS项目的学姐学长们也为新生们介绍了班级学生会、CEMS Club Beijing、丰富多彩的校园活动和高效学习的经验。

来自乌克兰的2019级学姐美李进（Zinovska Kateryna）为同学们详细介绍了CEMS Club Beijing。CEMS Club Beijing面向全部CEMS交换生和MiM学生举办丰富的活动，包括日常聚会、公司参访、校友座谈、求职技能工作坊等。本学期，CEMS Club Beijing将举办更加多元的线上活动，如CEMS 全球校友周活动、CEMS Talk、线上音乐会、行业分享会等，为身处世界各地的同学们带来更为丰富的课外体验。

Then, the students of Master in Management program also shared their experiences of course study and school life. Zinonska Kateryna from Ukraine invited students to join in CEMS Club Beijing, the local CEMS student club at Tsinghua that delivers diversified activities for CEMS as well as Master in Management students. This semester, students will participate in a series of events like CEMS Global Alumni Week seminar, CEMS Talk, Virtual Concert, CV workshop, and Corporate visits, according to Zinonska Kateryna.

来自日本的2020级学姐西田安弥纱（Ayasa Nishida）从学习经验的角度，与同学们详细展开了分享，介绍能够提高学习效率的在线学习软件和网站。

来自美国的2020级学长何诺亚（Noah Taylor）向同学们提出了三点线上学习的建议。“首先，上课时一定要打开摄像头。现在许多同学都在教室上课，如果线上的同学不开启摄像头，增强自己的课堂参与度，很有可能被遗忘。其次，要勇于添加同学为微信好友，以此增进彼此的沟通和交流，不必害羞。最后，要努力学习，线上学习会使我们倾向于将低效率归结为学习环境，而非自身的懒惰，而实际可以通过自我调整实现高效学习。”

Ayasa Nishida from Japan, student of Master in Management program introduced Tsinghua online resources and tools for online courses. Her classmate Noah Taylor from America shared his suggestions on online study, “When you do online learning, turn on your camera and enjoy the class. It helps you feel connected. Also, keep engaging with your class and you’d better get to know the faces of your classmates and add their WeChat. At last, you should have a designated study area and work hard. It helps you clear your mind and work better. Sometimes we tend to blame the inefficiency of our study to the online environment, while high efficient learning can be achieved through continuous adjustment.”
