CAD collaborates with the departments of Communication, History, and the Faculty of Education for MA and PhD programs in visual communication to cultivate talents in creative media for Macao and the Guangzhou-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Through establishing a platform for international exchange and collaborations in interdisciplinary research projects, CAD endeavors to promote creativity in the fields of arts, design, and creative media internationally.
