Deputy Director of the Central Government Liaison Office in Macau, Luo Yonggang, and Director of Education and Youth Development Bureau of Macau SAR Government, Lou Pak Sang, also attended the event.
During the seminar, Fu Ziying, Director of the Central Government Liaison Office in Macau, spoke to the student representatives from the 10 local higher educational institutions and youth associations, encouraging young students to reflect on past experience and learn from history. Fu stated that the key to implementing “One-country, Two-systems” successfully in Macao is the supportive spirit of the general public in “Loving the Motherland and Loving Macau”.
The students participated actively in the Q&A session, asking questions such as “How can Macao youths engage in the development of the Greater Bay Area?” and “In what ways can Macau students embrace the May Fourth spirit?”. With clear and detailed explanation from Director Fu, the students gained knowledge on the history and development of their motherland.
In December 2020, as part of renovations to modernise their exhibitions, the Macau Grand Prix Museum invited University of Saint Joseph (USJ) students to submit a proposal that would convey the innovative spirit of the Grand Prix and expand the accessibility of the Museum to more visitors. In response, Students in the Master of Design and Master of Architecture programmes have used 3D printing technology to recreate celebrated formula cars from Macau Grand Prix history. The exhibition is currently on display at the Museum and is for the general public to enjoy, including those who are visually impaired.
Unlike traditional museum exhibitions, which prominently display “Do Not Touch” signs wherever possible, this exhibition was designed for human contact. Working collaboratively with the Museum and under the supervision of USJ Department of Creative Industries professors, students created an experiential exhibition structured with the intension to provide visitors who are visually impaired greater support and accessibility to “see” the exhibition through touch. Visitors are encouraged to engage the exhibition with their hands and encounter pieces of Macau’s heritage in new ways.
The exhibition revolves around replicas of three legendary formula cars selected from three eras of Macau Grand Prix history. The first is Teddy Yip’s “The Lotus 22” from 1967. The second is “The Reynard 903” with Michael Schumacher who won the Formula 3 race in 1990. Lastly, there is “The Dallara F312” with Félix da Costa who became the first Portuguese winner in 2012. The three formula cars were 3D scanned, 3D modelled, and then digitally cut into 102 pieces. The final product was printed in a 1:3.5 ratio. Printing each replica took approximately 400 hours and used 26 kilograms of recyclable PLA material. Altogether, the process took 900 hours of human labour, from preparing the models for scanning to assembly and applying the finishing varnish.
The Macau Grand Prix Museum is currently open for trial operation from Mondays to Sundays, and closed on Tuesdays and public holidays, from 10:00 to 13:00, 15:00 to 18:00. Come experience our digitally fabricated replicas and learn more about our fabrication process!
The Bachelor of Psychology Class of 2011 gathered together to mark their 10th graduation anniversary on Friday, 30 April 2021, at the University of Saint Joseph (USJ) Ilha Verde Campus.
The gathering was organised by the Office for Student and Alumni Affairs (OSAA) with the presence of Vice Rector of USJ, Prof. Keith Morison and former USJ faculty member, Prof. Francisco Botelho.
The evening programme included dinner accompanied by a brief introduction on the current development of the Psychology programme of USJ by the Head of the Department of Psychology of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Education (FSSE), Prof. Vitor Teixeira, and paired with a networking session between alumni and current students.
Since the middle 0f the 16th century, Macau has been linked to the production of Western knowledge on China, deserving a place in the world’s sinology. A repository of knowledge, scholarship and linguistic expertise was accumulated in the city during centuries, being also networked to other centers of Chinese expertise. This repository is a multi-national, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and multi-linguistic legacy produced by diverse kinds of men, Westerners and Asians, from the celebrated Jesuit and early Protestant missionaries to the common sailor and adventurer linked to Macau. It is a legacy that that has contributed to making Macau a vital point of Western interaction with China.
From a historical perspective, this presentation offers notes on a comparative overview of missionary language training and linguistic work in the 16th, 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries, discussing a neglected similarity of strategies towards China used by both early Roman Catholic and early Protestant missionaries. These two missionary endeavours constituted two initial moments of Western direct interaction with China, two different steps towards globalization that have much more in common than it seems at first sight, something is not usually noticed by the related literature.

On behalf of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ), the Office for Student and Alumni Affairs (OSAA) participate in the Online Seminar - "Involving students effectively - what happens and how it improves universities: international perspectives " organised by the Magna Charta Observatory and the Global Student Forum, on 19 April 2021.
Over 150 participants from 71 different countries attended the seminar to discuss about how students and scholars are central to the mission, life and success of universities.
Student representatives from North America, Latin America, Africa and Europe were invited to share their experience in recognising and responding to every form of student engagement. To improve the development of the universities, it is essential to welcome and mobilise student's voice and create space for dialogue between the University and the students.
The objectives of the seminar align with the objectives of USJ in active listening to its students.
On April 22, 2021, Prof. Michael Trimarchi from the Faculty of Business and Law of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ), was invited to be a guest at the Artyzen Grand Lapa for the Macau IC2 World Earth Day event, organised under the guidance of USJ Master of Business Administration (MBA) alumnus, Ms. Ada Lo, with the aim of educating and engaging employees and consumers on healthy living and sustainable practices.
The event was a culmination of a 5-week event organising course, themed “How to make the impossible possible – in event organising”, delivered by Ms Lo to 8 students with special needs from the IC2, who prepared and managed the Macao IC2 World Earth Day event.
IC2, which stands for "I CAN TOO" or "I can do it, too", is the only NGO in Macao managed solely by a group of people with autism and intellectual disabilities, and it advocates the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, focusing on raising social awareness in their belief in equality and that every human being is important.
The activities managed by IC2 students included a tree-planting ceremony, where three 2-meter Plum Pines were planted in the hotel’s garden. This was to support the theme of sustainable development activities, and in particular, the cherishing of resources while inspiring others to strive for a better community. After the tree planting ceremony, the event continued at the Artyzen Grand Lapa’s tennis court, where principal supporters teamed up with IC2 students for a fun pickle-ball tournament, followed by a luncheon and a graduation ceremony, where Prof. Michael Trimarchi presented the IC2 students with their well-earned graduation certificates. The young graduates were praised by many for their efforts in executing a successful and inspiring World Earth Day Event.
The event was organised in partnership between Macau IC2, and Artyzen Grand Lapa, Shenmo Star River Public Welfare Alliance from Beijing, China, Macao Dragon Voyage Sport Association, and Macau Greenfuture. Guests representatives included Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Macao SAR, members of the IAS Department of Social Affairs, Education and Youth Develop Bureau of Macau SAR, as well IC2 members and their supporters.
On April 26th, 2021, a delegation from Foshan University visited the Ilha Verde Campus of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ). The delegation was received for a meeting and lunch, before a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Signing Ceremony was held to consolidate a collaborative partnership between the institutions.
The Foshan University delegation was comprised of the Rector, Professor Zhifeng Hao; Dean of Graduate School, Professor Xinghu Wei; Director of Admissions and Career Guidance Centre, Mr. Jian Pan; Director of International Cooperation and Exchange Office, Ms. Fanxi Zhu; Dean of Faculty of Food Science and Engineering, Professor Yang Liu; and Associate Dean of Faculty of Physics and Optoelectronics, Professor Weicheng Chen.

The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) has been ranked for the first time in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings this year (2021). Now in its third edition, the THE Impact Rankings evaluates universities worldwide according to their social impact and sustainable development strategies, following the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Framework.
The results, released on 21st April, 2021, place USJ 41st globally for its impact in Quality Education and amongst the top 600 out of 1,115 universities from 94 countries and regions worldwide. Additionally, USJ was ranked 1st in Macao and at equal 4th position in Greater China alongside 4 universities from Mainland China and 1 from Hong Kong. USJ also earned a ranking in the top 200 for its work on marine sciences and environmental sustainability.
Commenting on the results, the Rector of USJ, the Rev’d Prof. Stephen Morgan said, "To find that in our first THE Impact Ranking, we are equal fourth in China, confirms that we are going in the right direction. Our Quality Education ranking, at 41st in the world, demonstrates that, despite our size, the education impact on offer at USJ is as good as it gets.”
In the past few years, the Social Work Department of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ) has built a long-term cooperation with the Association for Rehabilitation of Drug Abusers of Macau (ARTM) in teaching curriculum and field practice. Ms. Marta Bucho, the coordinator of the Female Treatment Center of ARTM, is a visiting academic of BSW program teaching "Social Work with Groups" and "Social Work and Addictive Behavior". ARTM also provides field placement and field supervision for year 4 students every year.
To better understand the rehabilitation services of ARTM to social work students, on April 14, 2021, BSW year 3 students, accompanied by Prof. Ning Tang, Prof. Michael Lai and Instructor, Ms. Cymie Sam from the Faculty of Social Sciences and Education (FSSE) of USJ, visited the Association for Rehabilitation of Drug Abusers of Macau (ARTM) in Coloane for a field activity of the module “Social Deviation and Justice”.
Mr. Cheung Lik-hang, the vice-deputy of ARTM, firstly introduced the services, history and rehabilitation services of ARTM. He also explained the "therapeutic community" and "physical-psycho-social" model, which includes a multi-disciplinary team providing services such as residential detoxification, individual and group counselling, family network support, medical support and pre-vocational training internship programme. The students then visited the Hold On To Hope Project, where provides vocational training opportunities for rehabilitated people at the H2H cafes and galleries.
The field visit helped the social work students understand the meaning of "recovery" for rehabilitated drug abusers. It is not only to help them to reduce or quit drugs, but also to adjust their lives for rejoining society and realising the meanings of their lives.
The increase of population in cities associated with climate change impacts can create innumerable environmental, economic and social problems, around the world. Urban areas have become more impermeable, with an increase fragmentation of habitats, ecosystem degradation, intensification of the heat island effect, water, air and land pollution and consequently leading to deterioration of human wellbeing and disconnection to nature.
The strategy for changing territories dynamics involves the use of Nature-Based Solutions to promote multifunctional areas, operating at different scales and relying on nature to generate environmental (e.g., biodiversity conservation or adaptation to climate change), economic (e.g., job creation and property valuation) and social (e.g., water drainage) advantages. Nature-Based Solutions also play an important role in mitigating the effects of urbanization, aiming to strengthen urban ecosystems in order to be more resilient to the challenges of climate change and contributing to the transition to a low carbon economy. To meet the ambitious goals of the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement, there is a need to entail substantial global investments and an unprecedented transformation of the infrastructure system.
This workshop will address the Nature-based solutions principles, concepts, barriers and opportunities for action. Strategies for Nature-based solutions landscape integration in cities will be delivered as their contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Examples of Nature-Based solutions will be closely looked at, such as, green roofs and walls, mangroves and constructed wetlands. Expert views and practical experiences will be shared.

The Macau Ricci Institute at the University of St. Joseph offers monthly Contemplation sessions focused on the topic of “Contemplation and Leadership”. The Forum explores how the practice of Contemplation may have a decisive impact on personal transformation, self-management, and leadership. The Contemplative prayer of silence during our sessions helps us in a re-discovery of the Psalms and the Gospel of St. John. During the Ignatian Year which stretches from 20 May 2021 through 31 July 2022 we reflect on the conversion St. Ignatius Loyola experienced 500 years ago when he was wounded by a cannon explosion in Pamplona as well as on the meaning of holiness in reference to the canonization of St. Ignatius with his friend Francis Xavier in 1622. The Forum also highlights the key insights of the founder of the Taipei Ricci Institute, Fr. Yves Raguin, S.J. who recognized in the journey of Contemplation and the mantric prayers of silence a privileged bridge for a dialogue with other wisdom traditions, especially with Buddhism.

Caenorhabditis elegans is a ~1 mm roundworm found in decomposing organic materi- als in nature. Its adoption as a model organism in the modern research laboratory has led to fundamental discoveries in biological processes important to all metazoan species including development, control of transcription, and aging. The seminar will present basic aspects of C. elegans biology as well as introduce laboratory techniques to study human diseases. The construction of transgenic animal models for investi- gating human neurodegenerative conditions including Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases will be highlighted. The seminar’s main goal will be to illuminate the use of model systems in basic as well as applied laboratory research.

The formation of Macao Creole Portuguese, locally known as Patuá or Maquista, is attributed to the speakers of Portuguese-based creole languages in Asia, especially Papia Kristang, the Malayo-Portuguese of Malacca. However, the Malaccan origin of Maquista is not generally accepted or understood by the local community. While the grammar of Kristang and other Creole Portuguese varieties have been documented by scholars, for comparative analysis, substantial gaps needed to be filled concerning the grammatical description of Maquista. From a typological perspective, the application of phylogenetic tools can clarify the historical formation of Maquista. However, while considering a possible revitalization of the language, the research should assess the significance of the Malayo-Portuguese elements in popular narratives and relate the language to current practices. From a theoretical perspective, the structural paradigm, prevalent in creole linguistics, is challenged by postcolonial critical theories.

Covid-19 impacts our life and world dramatically. Scientists claim, that this situation might have been caused – among other factors – by a wrong treatment of nature by humans. Did nature put its brakes on to correct human behavior? Can we humans discover in nature how to act correctly? Does nature help us to get to know what to do? Philosophically speaking, should actions follow our being (agere sequitur esse), and is ethics fundamentally hooked up with reality and ontology? (bonum et verum convertuntur). Does the “ought” follow from the “is”, and should human life and societies comply with how things are?
After overcoming the mechanistic reductionism of the “natural fallacy”, which denies “value judgments” originating from “is” or facts, this Lecture Series attempts to trace back question of “natural goodness” (Philippa Foot), morals and good actions “in accord with reason” (S. Thomas Aquinas, S.Th. I-II.21.1.; ST I-II, 90.1). The philosophical and catholic tradition calls this the morality of the “natural law”. The lectures shed light on development and relevance of Natural Law from different philosophical and theological angles.
About the Talk & Speaker:
This lecture examines how studies in the behavioural sciences relate to Natural Law theory. In particular it looks into the idea of ‘consent’ in human acts. This will be done by exploring the interplay between human reason and the biological-psychological-cultural factors that influence human behaviour. It will also point to certain paradoxes of being human where ‘consent’ has to contend with the complexity and rigor of negotiation when confronted with the morality of decision-making.

Alumni and former members of the USJ Badminton Club was invited to return to the USJ campus for a friendly gathering and match on March 28, 2021.
A group of students, professors and staff members of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ), visited the National Security Education Exhibition at the exhibition Hall of the Complex of Commerce and Trade Co-operation Platform for China and Portuguese-speaking Countries, on the 16th of April, 2021.
The guided tour included the screening of a short video about the nation's efforts in the anti-epidemic period and the unity of the people, the hardships of medical staff and the completion of the mobile cabin hospital, reminding everyone about the preventative measures at all time. The exhibition also featured boards with soundtracks, texts and images, as well as the nation's information on the construction of the safety system for Macao, enhancing the awareness of national security.
The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) held its annual Career Fair on April 13 and 14 (Tuesday and Wednesday) at Kent Wong Exhibition Gallery in USJ Ilha Verde Campus, with this year’s theme being “Support Innovative Diversity. Welcome Economic Recovery”. More than 60 public and private companies and organisations from different industries, coming from Macao and the Greater Bay Area, joined the event, providing more than 1,300 vacancies and internship opportunities, covering entry, mid or senior-level positions.
The opening ceremony took place at the Auditório Centenário de Fátima at 10 a.m. on April 13, 2021, and was officiated by the Most Reverend Bishop Stephen Lee Bun-sang, Chancellor of USJ; Reverend Prof. Stephen Morgan, Rector of USJ; Mr. Li Yong Le, Assistant of the Education and Youth Affairs Department of the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao Special Administrative Region; Mr. Chan Iok Wai, Director of the Student Affairs Department of the Education and Youth Development Bureau; Mr. Peng Jin Gang, Deputy Secretary-General of the Youth Federation of Nansha District, Guangzhou; and Mr. Clarence Wong, President-Board of Directors of the Macau Greater Bay Area Human Resources Association. The ceremony was attended by prestigious guests of various companies, along with the Vice-Rectors, Pro-Rector and Deans of USJ.
Over a dozen work seminars were arranged and speakers from different industries shared their entrepreneurial experiences. The two-day programme included job interview preparation workshops, alumni and student “chit-chat” sharing sessions, one-on-one mock interviews and resumé analyses, career talks and youth entrepreneurship innovation panel discussions. Different organisations from the Greater Bay Area were also invited to share their start-up experiences and employment opportunities, with the aim of supporting young graduates to integrate into the development of the region.
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit Macao’s economy hard, with the unemployment rate at the highest levels seen in the past decade, so to foster economic recovery, local industries must innovate and diversify their businesses. The University also hopes that the Career Fair provides students and alumni with more comprehensive employment information through communication and interaction with corporate representatives, speakers, guests, and senior alumni to enhance their employment opportunities.
