To improve the abilities of candidates and the quality of their works, teachers and students from the School of Mechanical Engineering attached great importance to the competition. Before the contest, members of the 9 teams had been selected through two rounds of competition, in which they challenged themselves time and again so as to make constant progress, and they also had learned a lot in cooperation. “I was so lucky to meet my teammates. At that time, we discussed in the classroom and worked outside together.” Xi Xiaomiao, a contestant from HNUST, said after the contest, “We also want to extend our sincere thanks to our teachers for their precious suggestions. For me and for each contestant, this competition is a significant chance to challenge and transform ourselves.”
