Message from the Program Director
“Youth is not a fleeting touch upon the surface like a dragonfly skimming the water; it is the courage to stride forward with determination, cutting through thorns and breaking past obstacles of stone.
As a student of Auditing, you are expected not only to master auditing expertise but also to possess a solid foundation in accounting, finance, economics, big data, and law.
Just as ‘only after enduring the bitter cold can one smell the fragrance of plum blossoms,’ may you, through four years of study and growth, leave behind the most brilliant colors of your youth.”
