Chapter 568: Chapter 344 Completing 1/5 of the Task Progress (Please Subscribe)_2

The strongest domestic university in the field of artificial intelligence science is Yancheng University. Being able to establish a partnership with Yancheng University in this field proves how strong Mist City Arts and Science University is in this particular domain.

Wen Ruohan quickly took out her cell phone and called Liu Hongxia, the director of the publicity department, to convey Principal Ding’s intention.

About ten minutes later.

An announcement appeared on the official website of Mist City Arts and Science University.

[Announcement on the establishment of a new Artificial Intelligence Science Department in our school and partnership with Yancheng University]——

"Dear teachers and students, with the constant efforts and enlightened leadership of our school, the Computer Department will establish a new [Artificial Intelligence Science] specialty from next semester, and this specialty will establish a partnership with the [Artificial Intelligence Science] department of Yancheng University!"

The content of the announcement is not much, but it is concise.

With the official website’s announcement, it also appeared on the school’s public account.

Then, the official accounts of Mist City Arts and Science University on social media platforms such as TikTok, Bilibili, and Twitter started promoting it. However, the wording on these self-media platforms was much more friendly.

Twitter.

[Mist City Arts and Science University Official Twitter] v: Good news! Our school is about to establish a new [Artificial Intelligence Science] department, and establish a collaboration with the same specialty in Yancheng University. If you want to study Artificial Intelligence Science at university, come to Mist City Arts and Science University! [Big White image.jpg]

The propaganda department even paired this copy with a picture of the robot Big White.

Just as the news came out, many netizens who followed Mist City Arts and Science University’s official Twitter account began to comment in the comment section.

"Is this real?"

"Artificial Intelligence Science major? Seems pretty advanced."

"What’s so impressive about that, Yancheng University established this specialty more than a decade ago."

"Hehe, the artificial intelligence specialty of our Ha City Industrial University is also quite strong."

"Wow! Mist City Arts and Science University is awesome, they actually cooperate with Yancheng University in this field!"

"Excuse my ignorance, but what does an Artificial Intelligence Science major study?"

"As the name suggests, it studies artificial intelligence."

"Hahaha, Mist City Arts and Science University is a bit powerful, they can pair with this major of Yancheng University, awesome."

"Just bragging, would Yancheng University even give you the time of day?"

"Haha, is this private university planning to ride on the coattails of Yancheng University?"

"How come I didn’t hear about it, please don’t randomly cue our Yancheng University."

"If I remember correctly, Artificial Intelligence Science is one of the trump cards of Yancheng University, right?"

"Yes, the trump card major of Yancheng University, cooperating with your private university, are you joking?"

Very quickly, more and more netizens came to know about this news, and they started praising how awesome Mist City Arts and Science University is to establish a collaboration with the ace major of Yancheng University.

However, there are also some netizens who question whether this news from Mist City Arts and Science University might be false.

After all, everyone knows that Artificial Intelligence Science is one of the trump card specialties of Yancheng University. How could it possibly collaborate with Mist City Arts and Science University?

Moreover, Mist City Arts and Science University didn’t even have this major before, it all looks too fake.

However, these netizens who questioned Mist City Arts and Science University were soon refuted.

Because soon after the Tweet from Mist City Arts and Science University was released, the official Twitter account of Yancheng University also announced this news.

Since Yancheng University also officially announced it, more and more netizens were paying attention to this event and the discussion became more heated. It quickly made it into the trending list.

The onlookers might not be aware of why Mist City Arts and Science University could establish a partnership with the renowned major of Yancheng University in a newly established specialty. Could it be due to the power of money?

Actually, these onlookers were unaware of the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference and the appreciation of Principal Zhu of Yancheng University towards Ding Yue.

They also didn’t know about the inspection team from Yancheng University’s Artificial Intelligence Science department studying the related technologies of artificial intelligence at Mist City Arts and Science University.

At the moment, Ding Yue was not very concerned about the online discussion about his Mist City Arts and Science University.

Because time and time again, Mist City Arts and Science University has successfully established an image of a "powerful" private college in the hearts of netizens through positive events and various demonstrations of strength.

The next day, immediately after Ding Yue arrived at the principal’s office to begin another regular nine-to-five "work" day as usual, a system notification sounded in his mind!

Ding!

"Congratulations to the host for completing 1/5 of the task [Provincial Key Major] – the Computer Science major has successfully achieved the provincial key major level."

This was the first time that Ding Yue heard the notification sound followed by no rewards, simply because the system was only informing him that he had completed 1/5 of the task.

And the major defined by the system was Computer Science, whereas the major that the Mist City Arts and Science University had established cooperation and exchange with Yancheng University was Artificial Intelligence Science.

In fact, Artificial Intelligence Science at Mist City Arts and Science University is just a new major derived from the Computer Science department.

"Four more left."

Upon seeing that the task progress had changed to 1/5, Ding Yue was full of anticipation and expectation.

After all, the reward for this task was extremely tempting — [Advanced Laboratory Room +1], [Level 3 University Treasure Chest +1], [Master’s Degree Authorization Card] +5, and +500 reputation points.

The [Advanced Laboratory Room +1] and [Level 3 University Treasure Chest +1] were the best and most valuable task rewards.

Now that the Computer Science department had established a cooperative exchange relationship with Yancheng University, one task progress had been completed.

Then there were four left.

Mechanical Engineering, Architecture College, School of Medicine, these three were almost agreed upon during the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference.

And For the Mechanical Engineering major, Professor Liu Mingjiang and his team just finished visiting yesterday. It’s expected that there should be some news in a few days.

Then, there’s the Architecture major from the Architecture College. After Ding Yue discussed with President Zhang from East China Architecture and Engineering University, they agreed that there should be no problem in establishing a cooperative exchange.

Upon returning from the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference, Ding Yue immediately asked Chen Ping, of the Architecture College, to communicate with East China Architecture and Engineering University.

Combining the comprehensive strength of the Architecture College of Mist City Arts and Science University and the establishment of a cooperative relationship with East China Architecture and Engineering University, achieving the provincial key major level should not be difficult, right?

As for the School of Medicine, it’s also about to establish cooperation with Mist City Medical University, a nationally renowned medical university.

During this process, President Jiang Zhongbo of Mist City Central Hospital facilitated the connection. Many teachers at Mist City Medical University are also teachers at the Mist City Arts and Science University.

Some teachers and professors in Mist City Medical University are head physicians in Mist City Central Hospital. Last time, quite a few of these head physicians came to serve at the Mist City Arts and Science University’s School of Medicine.

Even Bai Liwei, the department head of the School of Medicine at Mist City Arts and Science University, is a graduate of the Mist City Medical University.

It’s only a matter of time for these three department majors to achieve the provincial key major level.

So what is the remaining one?

Originally, during the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference, Ding Yue planned to open relations with Xia Country University of Science and Technology’s Chemistry major by leveraging the energy chemistry technology equipment from his own school.

Unexpectedly, this idea was rejected by Principal He of Xia Country University of Science and Technology, who seems a bit old-fashioned.

In this case, as the task requires at least five provincial key level majors, there’s still one missing.

Ding Yue wondered whether he should choose another major with good development in Mist City Arts and Science University and work hard to build on that?

So, which major to choose?

The majors that Mist City Arts and Science University currently focuses on developing are Architecture College, School of Medicine, Computer Department, and Mechanical Department.

All these are already part of the progressions of the five tasks.

The College of Film and Television?

The College of Film and Television just recently won a gold award for documentaries at the NTS Gala.

However, there are so many majors in the College of Film and Television including directing, screenplay writing, acting, etc. None of them seem feasible.

"Ah, I’ve got it! How could I almost forget about this major?"

Suddenly, Ding Yue thought of an incredibly strong major at Mist City Arts and Science University.
