OFFICE INTRO
Overseas Students Service Center is a single service window for overseas students. Students can seek professional consultation from Overseas Students Service Center to have their various problems and questions resolved.
Overseas student consultation can be further subdivided into 4 major categories, including cultural adaptation, learning adaptation, life adaptation and interpersonal adaptation. Concrete actions taken were fully described as below:
(1) Cultural adaptation lectures such as “Round-the-Island Journey” and “Visiting Local Cultural Heritage” were delivered, so that overseas students can better understand domestic culture and have their misunderstanding generated from cultural differences eliminated.
(2) Learning exchanges between domestic students and overseas students were encouraged, while overseas students from upper grades were also invited over to share about their own learning experiences.
(3) Overseas student clubs were established to provide overseas students with a sense of belongingness and a dedicated channel to express themselves.
(4) Common activities between local students and overseas students were arranged, so that an exchange platform can be fully established to shorten overseas student’s interpersonal adaptation timespan。
