Harvard College Association for U.S.-China Relations

China Thinks Big (CTB) is a flagship research and innovation conference under HAUSCR. As the program that pioneered project-based learning in Asia, over the past 14 years CTB has empowered tens of thousands of high school students in China and internationally to tackle real-world challenges with mentorship and structure. This year, we hosted 69 high school teams and brought 200+ finalists to Harvard’s campus for our CTB Global Finals to share their year’s-long research with our community of students and professors. In addition to poster and oral presentation sessions, CTB’ers also engaged in our Hackathon, a 72 hour challenge to come up with an innovative idea on how to employ principles from biomimicry to address an issue on Harvard’s campus. Students heard from Harvard faculty on their related bioinspired and bioengineering research works and expertise and also had the opportunity to conduct field research with our student community.

HAUSCR BPC Global Finals 25-26 has officially concluded!! This year, we invited more than 200 students to come join us on campus in addition to investors, businesses, and professionals that made BPC such a success! In addition, we are immensely grateful for the work that these students put in as they spent the week thinking about ways to innovate and get creative with the world around by building solutions to real-world problems. We are so proud of everyone who made it happen, from the workshops, case discussions, and keynote sessions to the sibling program, campus tour, and final presentations, the whole conference was definitely a memorable experience!
