The students who participated in the lecture said that it was great to know the international program at the very beginning of the study in university, which broadened their horizons and provided a brand-new direction for their academic career.
Since the establishment of the GUST-ARU joint program, our school has been actively improving the construction of the program together with ARU, which has sent many outstanding professors to our school to answer questions and solve related problems of the joint program for students, carried out open classes, and given lectures to help new students understand the program. In the future, GUST and ARU will continue to better build the program, provide professional courses and counseling for students in the 3+1 international class to help them grow into talents with international perspective.
