The Finance MBA is due to commence with the first intake enrollment this October, while the full-time 12-month MBA program is currently in the process of being expanded to become a dual-campus program with modules in both Shanghai and Beijing.展开更多

The winners of the inaugural award were Professor CHEN Ke-ji, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Director of Cardiovascular Center, Xiyuan Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences; and Professor Tommy CHENG, Henry Bronson Professor of Pharmacology at Yale University and Chairman of the Consortium for the Globalization of Chinese Medicine.展开更多

In particular, the essay follows Dung＇s own lead, in Histories of Time, and considers the peculiar temporality implicit in the concept of figuration in Biblical hermeneutics, wherein the ＂figure＂ mediates between the two distinct--yet structurally related--temporalities of the Old and the New Testaments： the ＂prefiguration＂ of the Old Testament and the ＂fulfillment of figuration＂ of the New Testament. I propose that a literary ＂figure,＂ in Dung＇s work, similarly mediates between the different temporal planes within his novel, while at the same time mediating between the fictional space of the novel and the historical era within which the work is positioned. Just as a symptom is simultaneously a function of--but also structurally external to--the underlying condition that it signifies, this sort of literary figure may similarly be seen as a function of--but simultaneously external to--the historical era to which it corresponds. This sort of literary figure, accordingly, marks a point of rupture within the temporality of the novel and its corresponding era, while at the same time providing the ground on which that temporal continuum is established in the first place.展开更多

The interface of these p-n junction GaN diodes examined by high-resolution transition electron microscopy was clear and distinguishable. Lattice images identified the complete dissolution of Mg into the Ga site. At the room temperature, the diode had the turn-on voltage of 2.2 V, the leakage current of 2.2 × 10–7 A, the breakdown voltage of –6 V, the barrier height of 0.56 eV, ideality factor of 5.0 by I (current)-V (voltage) test and 5.2 derived from the Cheungs’ method, and series resistance of 560 Ω. These electrical properties were investigated at different testing temperatures from room temperature to 200°C. The temperature dependence in the I-V characteristics of the p-n diodes can be successfully explained on the basis of thermionic-emission mode.展开更多

When expressing this birth information into the Chinese calendar, one can see details about the person＇s life and achievement deduced from the interaction of the 5 basic elements. The birth elements of famous emperors and generals in Chinese history have been interesting area of study and some of these famous people＇s birth data are very unique that can offer deeper insight in the research and study of Four Pillars of Destiny. This article focuses on the most fascinating examples of Chinese historical figures and explains how their special life path and achievement can be clearly reflected by their respective Four Pillars of Destiny.展开更多
