The department actively organizes mass sports activities, including the "Ma John Cup" Student Track and Field Games, the Freshmen Games, the Graduate Student Games, and the Campus Marathon. These events form a year-round system of mass competitions, attracting 50,000 participants annually, fostering a positive atmosphere for physical exercise. The department has been awarded the title of "National Advanced Unit for Mass Sports" on multiple occasions. All undergraduates participate in the National Student Physical Health Test each year. Since 2011, a physical fitness test has been added to the independent admissions process, which has had a positive social impact and a leading effect.
