Students sharing: Lingnan University X University of Oxford Postgraduate Summer School 2025 highlights
The highly regarded and prestigious annual flagship event, the Postgraduate Summer School 2025, has been organised by Lingnan University in collaboration with Hertford College of the University of Oxford. This UK-based exchange programme reflects Lingnan’s resolve to broaden students’ international exposure and enhance global research commitment.
This year, more than 100 postgraduate students from both local and international universities are attending the Summer School, including 24 nominated Lingnan students who have received top scholarships.
Let us take a look at the photos and videos shared by students Xu Chuoya and Tang Yi, capturing their memorable moments during their exchange at the University of Oxford.
Xu Chuoya (Master of Arts in International Higher Education and Management)(left):
‘’After years of practicing international and diverse early childhood education, I finally had the chance to study at the University of Oxford. The cultural differences here offered more than just a visual feast—they sparked profound collisions of ideas and perspectives that will stay with me forever.
'Hands-on experience, direct perception, and practical application' aren’t just learning methods for children—they benefit everyone. Oxford taught me that learning is truly boundless, transcending nationality, gender, and age. Its rich history and academic rigor are nothing short of inspiring.’’

Tang Yi (Master of Science in Work and Organisational Psychology):
‘’Oxford’s tutorial system was inspiring and intense—being questioned and defending my ideas sharpened my critical thinking in ways I didn’t expect. Even punting on the river became a time for reflection, with stories of resilience shared by others.
Oxford isn’t just a place of history—it’s a living, evolving workshop of innovation. I leave with a new mindset: to approach life with rigor, curiosity, and humility, as both a learner and a contributor.’’
