The dataset comprises 1,035 Weibo posts collected from nine influential official university accounts in the past few years. The book makes both theoretical and practical contributions to multimodal discourse analysis and communication studies. Theoretically, it provides a systematic social semiotic study of the under-explored institutional identity on social media, thereby expanding the scope of multimodal discourse studies. In practice, it helps universities understand what identities they have constructed, enabling them to better deal with fierce competition amid globalization and marketization. More importantly, it offers an insightful perspective on university branding on social media in the Chinese context.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2026-08-07\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789819220472\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: \u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50185180217484,"sku":"9789819220472","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789819220472.jpg?v=1779656141","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789819220472","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
