We were honored yesterday to welcome Professor Dr. Jiang from Duke University, ranked among the top 30 universities worldwide, to deliver an engaging two-hour lecture on the topic:

“The Coordination Role of Public Information and Its Application in Accounting.”

We also asked Prof. Dr. Jiang  from Duke University for his feedback on student participation during the lecture, which was attended by around 50 students and faculty members. He shared:

"Student engagement is excellent. They are well-prepared and ask interesting questions."
