“CCU Through the Lens — Graduation Edition” Photography Contest Now Open for Entries

Graduation may not simply be a farewell, but a collection of moments worth preserving.

In your final year at National Chung Cheng University, have you ever wondered: if you could choose just one photograph to represent your college life, which moment would it be?

To celebrate the upcoming 114th Academic Year graduation season, the Extracurricular Activities Section of the Office of Student Affairs at National Chung Cheng University proudly presents the “CCU Through the Lens — Graduation Edition” Photography Contest. Graduating students are invited to capture their campus memories through photography and frame a meaningful conclusion to their university journey.

Whether it is the quiet glow of your department building after a long night of studying, the campus bathed in sunset light, or a candid smile shared with friends, every click of the shutter transforms a fleeting instant into a memory that belongs uniquely to you and CCU.

The contest is open to all students graduating in the 114th Academic Year, including bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral students. Participants are encouraged to draw inspiration from people, events, or places on campus and submit photographs related to the theme of “graduation.” Entries are not limited to commencement ceremonies, official events, or group photos. As long as the photograph clearly shows a campus location and reflects a meaningful connection between the graduate and National Chung Cheng University, it aligns with the theme.

The organizers hope that through photography, students will look back on the four, six, or even more years spent at CCU. The gratitude left unspoken, the friendships that are hard to part with, and the youthful moments before everyone embarks on new paths can all be preserved through images. A final award ceremony and photography exhibition will be held, allowing these stories of graduates to be shared and appreciated across campus.

For detailed information and submission guidelines, please visit the event website. Graduating students are warmly invited to participate and leave behind a defining page of their university life through photography.
