Following the visit of Vice-Rector Professor Zhang Shuguang to the Catholic University of Croatia (CUC) in Zagreb, Croatia, in September, the Rector of CUC, Reverend Professor Željko Tanjić, made an official visit to the University of Saint Joseph (USJ) in Macao, during which he was received for a meeting and lunch, before the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the USJ Ilha Verde campus.

Rector Tanjić was welcomed by the USJ Rector, Reverend Professor Stephen Morgan; Vice-Rector for External Affairs and Institutional Development, Professor Shuguang Zhang; and Vice-Rector for Student Affairs, Dr. Teresa Loong.

The five-year term MoU, signed by the two Rectors, consolidates a cooperative partnership between both catholic universities in the areas of academic and staff exchanges and collaboration, joint research projects, exchange and development of academic projects, shared access to resources, and other areas of mutual interest.

The Catholic University of Croatia is one of the youngest Croatian universities, established on June 3, 2006. The mission of the Catholic University of Croatia is a continuous search for the truth through research, and the preservation and transfer of knowledge for the welfare of society.
