SZU entered the national finals with five teams, all of which won awards: four Gold Prizes and one Silver Prize. With an 80% gold award rate, SZU ranked tied for fourth nationally and first in Guangdong Province for total number of gold medals. The university’s journey to the finals was marked by a 62.5% advancement rate from its eight nationally recommended projects, placing it tied for tenth nationally in finalist numbers.
