On 15^th October, 2025, Moon Chun Memorial College, University of Macau hosted a workshop themed “Career Decision-Making”, which was led by Prof. Xu Hui, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology and non-resident college affiliate. The event explored the core principles of career planning and common challenges and coping strategies in the process of making career choices.

In this era of constant change and uncertainty, how can one forge a meaningful and sustainable career path? Prof. Xu introduced the Dual-Process Theory of Career Decision-Making (DTC) as a starting point, guiding students to reflect on how to balance rational planning with intuitive adaptation. He also presented the emerging concept of “career wisdom,” encouraging students to view uncertainty as an opportunity for self-exploration and growth.

The workshop also incorporated the Career Compass online assessment system, allowing participants to engage in hands-on practice and develop personalized career planning strategies. Students shared that the event not only provided practical tools and perspectives but also inspired them to rethink their career direction and values.
