Upcoming Event: The 2024 Macao International Communication Week

The 2024 Macao International Communication Week, themed "The Digital Paradigm," will commence at 10:30 am on May 8th. In line with the University's commitment to educational and research excellence, the event will spotlight cutting-edge developments in media and communication studies for the digital age. Esteemed scholars from Singapore, Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR, and the Chinese Mainland, specializing in communication, journalism, sociology, psychology, culture studies, and digital design, will discuss their research on digital narratives in urban contexts, dynamics of digital integration in professional and public domains, the intersection of communication and well-being, and digital tools' influence on knowledge and cultural production.

The event will feature a keynote lecture by Professor Edson C. Tandoc Jr. from Nanyang Technological University, titled "The Rise of Generative AI: From Fake News to Fake Research?"

A roundtable discussion between international journal editors and authors is also included in the program.

In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Macao SAR, the Faculty of Humanities and Arts at MUST, along with Fudan University and Jiangsu Broadcasting Corporation, will release the Macao-Shanghai Digital Communicative Power Index. Additionally, we will jointly launch a series of media convergence initiatives designed to enhance community welfare in our digital world.

The event is open to the public and everyone is welcome to join us at this international academic gathering. We hope it will provide an enriching and insightful collective experience centered on the digital paradigm in communicative behaviors and in how we research them.
