The Education Ministry revealed that 29 new academic majors will be introduced, including those focused on AI and emerging fields like low-altitude economy, as part of this year’s college entrance examinations.

Among the new majors are regional and country studies, carbon neutrality science and engineering, marine science and technology, and healthcare security.
In response to advancements in technology, additional programs such as intelligent molecular engineering, medical devices and equipment engineering, and spatiotemporal information engineering have also been added to the curriculum. Furthermore, market-driven fields like international cruise management and aviation sports have been created to align with industry needs.
