SHANGHAI, Aug. 1 (Xinhua) -- After working as a housekeeper in Shanghai for nearly two decades, 49-year-old Zhu Chunnan finally realized her dream of getting an undergraduate diploma in July.

As an experienced housekeeper with multiple skill certificates and honors, Zhu fondly admits that gaining experience as an undergraduate was a cherished aspiration in her life.

Zhu is among the first batch of 95 graduates from Shanghai majoring in domestic service. She completed her junior college education and undergraduate curriculum at Shanghai Open University over a period of five years.

"Unlike the focus on skill upgrading in junior college education, this undergraduate study offers in-depth courses covering a wide range of subjects such as nutriology, health management, consumption guidance, aesthetics, and laws and regulations," said Yang Wanling, an associate professor at the university.

Ren Xin, a 19-year-old college student, was fascinated with dancing since her childhood. She was one of the actors and actresses who performed the traditional "bian lian", or face-changing during the opening ceremony of the 31st FISU Summer World University Games in Chengdu on July 28, 2023.

Ren Xin, who was born in a remote mountain village called Changsheng Community in Washi Township of Tongjiang County in Sichuan Province, is now a student majored in dancing performance at Sichuan Film and Television University.

Together with other 30 "bian lian" performers, Ren and her fellows were chosen from over 700 dancing performance majors. Four months of intensive "bian lian" training helped those beginners with zero "bian lian" background developed to skilled performers for the opening ceremony.
