由澳門大學與英國劍橋大學卡萊爾堂(Clare Hall of University of Cambridge)合辦的首屆“劍橋大學卡萊爾堂—澳門大學論壇2025”於3月31日至4月1日在澳大成功舉行,以“跨學科方法推進可持續發展:全球挑戰的創新解決方案”為題展開深入探討。澳大與劍橋還於論壇上續簽卡萊爾堂客座研究員計劃合作協議,進一步深化人文社會科學與科技領域的跨學科合作。
 
論壇開幕式上,澳大校長宋永華教授致辭指出,澳大與劍橋卡萊爾堂自2006年啟動客座研究員計劃以來,已有23名澳大學者赴劍橋交流,成果豐碩。他強調,面對氣候變遷、資源短缺等全球性挑戰,跨學科協作與技術創新是推動可持續發展的核心,並期待是次論壇成為東西方學術對話的橋樑。劍橋卡萊爾堂院長艾倫肖特教授(C. Alan Short)指出,是次論壇作為雙方首度聯合主辦的跨學科盛會,既延續了長期合作成果,亦凸顯整合多元視角與打破學科界限的重要性。他表示,未來將聚焦可持續發展、人工智能等領域的協同創新,共同應對全球性挑戰。此外,雙方續簽卡萊爾堂客座研究員計劃合作協議,推動聯合研究項目,深化人才培養與科研協同創新,標誌著雙方的合作邁向更高層次發展。
 
論壇設兩場全體會議及三場分論壇,聚焦永續建築與智慧城市、人工智能、工程學、社會科學與教育以及漢學研究等議題,20多位來自澳門大學、劍橋大學和重慶大學的學者發表前沿研究成果,激發跨領域思辨與合作靈感。首場全體會議中,艾倫肖特教授提出永續建築需結合氣候適應性材料與跨國合作,加速低碳轉型。宋永華教授強調極端氣候加劇城市能源系統負荷,並提出以大灣區案例實踐虛擬能源儲存與空調運行優化,降低熱浪與能耗的惡性循環,倡導整合人工智慧與物聯網技術推動跨領域協同創新。重慶大學土木工程學院教授、卡萊爾堂客座研究員李百戰教授指出氣候變化推升空調能耗,其團隊研發“氣候響應式建築設計”並制定國家標準,推動長江流域節能項目。澳門大學工商管理學院教授、卡萊爾堂客座研究員傅曉青教授分析智慧城市政策,實證顯示城市數位化促進企業綠色創新,呼籲政府、企業與高校協同推動轉型。論壇亦吸引一眾澳大師生踴躍參與,現場交流熱烈。
 

4月1日,劍橋大學卡萊爾堂學者參訪了呂志和書院,獲書院院長藍志雄教授的熱情接待。訪問期間,學者們與書院學生進行了深入交流,探討住宿式書院的學習與生活體驗。隨後,在學生大使的陪同下,學者們參觀了大學展館、伍宜孫圖書館等地標設施,充分感受校園的學術氛圍。在智慧城市物聯網國家重點實驗室的參觀中,惠紅勛教授為他們介紹了實驗室的研究方向與最新成果。參訪活動中還舉行了劍橋校友聚會,曾參與卡萊爾堂客座研究員計劃的澳大教師與卡萊爾堂學者齊聚一堂,艾倫·肖特教授介紹了近年來學院的發展進程,而校友們也藉此機會交流學術心得。

澳大與劍橋卡萊爾堂自2006年透過卡萊爾堂客座研究員計劃建立了合作夥伴關係,持續推動人才交流與跨學科研究,成果顯著。本次活動進一步深化了兩校的學術互動,期望藉此機會加強恆常的學術交流與合作,為雙方共同創造更多學術突破與創新契機。
The ‘First Clare Hall, University of Cambridge – University of Macau Forum 2025,’ co-hosted by the University of Macau (UM) and Clare Hall of the University of Cambridge, was successfully held from 31 March to 1 April at UM. The theme of the forum was ‘Interdisciplinary Approaches to Advancing Sustainable Development: Innovative Solutions to Global Challenges’. During the event, UM and Cambridge renewed their cooperation agreement on the Cambridge Clare Hall Visiting Fellowship Programme, which aims to deepen interdisciplinary collaboration in the humanities, social sciences, and technology.
 
In his opening remarks, UM Rector, Professor Yonghua Song, highlighted the fruitful partnership between UM and Clare Hall since the inception of the Cambridge Clare Hall Visiting Fellowship Programme in 2006, which has enabled 23 UM scholars to engage in academic exchange at Cambridge. He emphasised that interdisciplinary collaboration and technological innovation are pivotal to promoting sustainable development in the face of global challenges such as climate change and resource scarcity. He also expressed hope that the forum would serve as a bridge for East-West academic dialogue. Professor Alan Short, president of Clare Hall, noted that the forum, as the first interdisciplinary event jointly hosted by the two universities, was a continuation of their long-term partnership and reflected the importance of integrating diverse perspectives and breaking down disciplinary boundaries. He also highlighted that future efforts will focus on collaborative innovation in areas such as sustainable development and artificial intelligence to address global challenges.
 
In addition, UM and Cambridge renewed their cooperation agreement on the Cambridge Clare Hall Visiting Fellowship Programme to promote joint research projects and enhance talent cultivation and collaborative innovation in scientific research. The renewal of the agreement marks a higher level of cooperation between the two universities.
 
The forum featured two plenary sessions and three parallel sessions, covering a diverse range of topics, including Sustainable Architecture and Smart Cities, Artificial Intelligence, Engineering, Social Sciences and Education, and Chinese Studies. Over 20 scholars from the University of Macau, Cambridge University, and Chongqing University showcased their cutting-edge research, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration.
 
The first plenary session explored low-carbon technologies and ecological restoration strategies. During this session, Professor Alan Short suggested that sustainable architecture needs to incorporate climate-adaptive materials and international cooperation to accelerate the low-carbon transition. Rector Yonghua Song highlighted how extreme climate events strain urban energy systems and proposed optimising virtual energy storage and air conditioning systems in the Greater Bay Area to mitigate the vicious cycle between heatwaves and energy consumption. He also advocated the integration of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things to drive interdisciplinary innovation. Professor Baizhan Li, professor in the School of Civil Engineering at Chongqing University and a visiting fellow at Clare Hall, noted that the energy consumption of air-conditioning systems has increased due to climate change, adding that his team has developed ‘climate-responsive building designs’ and established national standards to promote energy-efficient projects in the Yangtze River region. Professor Maggie Fu, professor in the Faculty of Business Administration at UM and a visiting fellow at Clare Hall, analysed smart city policies and provided empirical evidence that urban digitalisation drives corporate green innovation. She also called for collaboration among governments, businesses, and universities to promote sustainable transitions. The forum attracted the participation of UM students and faculty, fostering dynamic discussions.
 

On 1 April, scholars from Clare Hall visited Lui Che Woo College, where they were warmly welcomed by the College Master, Professor Desmond Lam. During the visit, the scholars engaged in in-depth discussions with the college’s students, exploring their learning and living experiences in a residential college setting. Accompanied by a student ambassador, the scholars toured campus landmarks such as the University Gallery and the Wu Yee Sun Library, fully immersing themselves in the academic atmosphere of the campus. While visiting the State Key Laboratory of Internet of Things for Smart City (SKL-IoTSC), Professor Hongxun Hui introduced the lab’s research focuses and latest achievements. The visit also featured the alumni meeting, where faculty members from the UM who had participated in Clare Hall’s Visiting Fellow Programme joined the scholars from Clare Hall. During the meeting, Professor Alan Short provided an overview of Clare Hall’s recent developments, and the alumni took the opportunity to exchange academic insights.

 
Since establishing their partnership through the Cambridge Clare Hall Visiting Fellowship Programme in 2006, UM and Clare Hall have made remarkable progress in talent exchange and interdisciplinary research. This event aimed to further deepen the academic interactions between the two institutions, with the hope of strengthening regular academic exchange and collaboration, thereby creating more opportunities for academic breakthroughs and innovation for both parties.
