The ceremony kicked off with a cheerful African dance, and the video clip “Study in WZU” pulled the international students into the door of memories, and they couldn't help but recalling their four years of study at WZU.


After that, Vice President Cai Shuguang delivered a speech to fully affirm their achievements and wish all of them a prosperous future and happiness. He said that "if you study alone and have no friends, you are lonely and uneducated" and hoped the 2022 international graduates would learn from the strengths of others and other cultures and become ambassadors of long-term friendly exchanges between their home countries and China.

Dr. Xu Zheng, the faculty representative, expressed his warmest congratulations and offered useful advice for the international graduates. He hoped they would never lose the aspiration to study and never lose the inner strength to overcome future challenges.

LUHWAGO JOSHUA CHARLES, a computing science and technology student of grade 2018 from Tanzania, spoke on behalf of the undergraduate students, saying, "No matter what choice we make, we will uphold the spirit of WZU, trying to be good ambassadors of our alma mater, and insist on working for the friendly development of our home countries and China." Later, a blessing video of the graduate student representative, Aylan, an applied economics student of grade 2019 from Italy was played. She expressed her gratitude to her alma mater WZU through the video.


Two representatives of the graduates' parents, also through video, sent their best wishes to their children as well as their classmates. The two parents congratulated graduates on the successful completion of studies, wished them a smooth start of a new journey in life, and hope they will make contribution to their motherland in the future.
