Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) attaches great importance to students' moral education and all-round development. The university has a total of 247 student organizations and clubs, covering culture, sports, academics, and other interests. HIT holds the exciting "Hundred Clubs' Battle" each year at the beginning of the semesters. Each student, under the lively atmosphere, can find a club or organization of their interest and embark on an unforgettable campus life. Among them, the Model Aircraft Association and the Competitive Robotics Team have been recognized as Vigorous Clubs among all national universities, with their activities having been reported by national media outlets such as People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, and China Youth Daily.
Adhering to its educational framework that integrates moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education, HIT aims to deepen the effectiveness of education and integrate morality development. It creates and promotes high-quality campus cultural projects, such as the departure ceremony for the Graduate Volunteer Teaching Corps, the Zuguang Cup Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, the campus mini-marathon, art on campus, and the Little Red Cap volunteer freshmen welcoming service. The university innovatively expands cultural immersive elements into spaces such as the "Warm Corridor" and the "Rain & Wind Gymnasium", allowing students to participate in activities anytime. Throughout the year, more than 1,000 "Four Seasons of HIT" campus cultural events are held, involving over 100,000 participants. Tickets for the monthly art performances on campus are so popular that they are often sold out within six minutes. The campus, immersed in diverse events and activities that everyone can participate in, has an energizing vibe for all its students and faculty.
