As pleasantly warm breeze brings the arrival of spring for all things, the spring semester of 2023 commenced as scheduled on February 20 at both Xueyuan Road Campus and Shahe Campus of Beihang University.

After the Spring Festival, Beihang students came back to campus and embarked diligently on their new journey with the first rays of the sun.

At 7 a.m., the first flag-raising ceremony of the new semester was held simultaneously on the two campuses. The Five-Starred Red Flag rose slowly with the solemn national anthem.

With familiar ringing of the bell and aspirations for the new semester, the teachers and students of Beihang started their busy work and study energetically.

On the first day of the semester, a total of 781 undergraduate courses and 147 postgraduate courses started as scheduled, with 11,482 undergraduates and 2,544 postgraduates attending their first lectures on time.

Forging ahead, may we all meet new challenges and opportunities with enthusiasm and hope, and achieve our own glory in this brand-new spring semester!
