SEIS Faculty Receive Multiple Honors at BFSU’s Teachers’ Day Ceremony

Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) held its 2026 Teachers’ Day celebration and awards ceremony on Sept. 10, the day China sets aside each year to honor its teachers. More than 700 faculty and staff attended.

At the ceremony, Li Hai, secretary of the CPC BFSU Committee, extended holiday greetings to all faculty and staff and reviewed the university’s progress in recent years. He said the university would continue to expand opportunities for faculty career development.

BFSU President Jia Wenjian called 2026 a pivotal year for the university, as profound global changes accelerate and artificial intelligence reshapes education. He said BFSU will stay committed to its educational mission and cultivate top talent who can compete internationally.

The ceremony honored groups and individuals for outstanding contributions to education, research, and support assignments, as well as teachers with three decades in the profession. University leaders presented certificates to award recipients.

Several SEIS faculty members were among those honored, a reflection of the strength of the School’s faculty and the results of its teaching. SEIS faculty will take this recognition as a new starting point, carrying forward the spirit of educators and working together to help build China into a leading country in education.
