Sharing from student Truong Thi Hong Trang, School of International Business – Marketing COB - “In my student life, this is the best experience that gives me a different feeling compared with the things that I've experienced before - a feeling that I would never have had if I hadn't had the opportunity to join this trip….I cherish every moment, even though this is a period. The time is very short, but it is enough for me to experience the culture and people of Taiwan, make more friendly and talented international friends, and visit and experience the "genuine" facilities at MCUT.”

The program closes to give students valuable experiences, change their thoughts in a positive direction, and become stronger, bolder, tougher, and more ambitious people with friends. Great international. After the summer camp, every student returns home to continue their studies or start a new journey, but this fateful journey will give wings to young dreams, and step out into the world, get out of your comfort zone, discover and replace yourself with a new shell - tougher, more gorgeous, and more brilliant.
