Introduction to "School Motto Tree": "School Motto Tree" is made of bronze and designed and created by Shang Changhong, a teacher at Shandong Academy of Arts and Crafts. The sculpture is 1.1 meters high, 2.2 meters wide, 0.45 meters thick, and the base is 0.8 meters high. The shape of a tree symbolizes the talent cultivation concept of "it takes ten years to cultivate trees and a hundred years to cultivate people". The school motto "Both moral integrity and ability, unity of knowledge and action" is cast at the root of the tree in seal script. The upward interweaving growth of the branches is a metaphor for Beihang University's multi-disciplinary approach. The intersection and integration of the traditional Chinese images of auspicious clouds and fruits are hung on the trees, symbolizing Beihang inheriting and carrying forward fine traditions, constantly innovating and achieving fruitful results.
