From March 2 to March 15, nine French major students from the School of International Culture and Communication, led by teacher Ouyang Muyi and Gao Liang, traveled to Paris, France, to participate in a two-week Chinese-French University-Enterprise Challenge. The students teamed up with peers from Jean-Lurçat College, one of our partner institutions in France, to complete a critical thinking case study and project presentation for the university-enterprise challenge, receiving high praise and acclaim.

During their stay in Paris, the French program also organized visits for the students to three partner universities: ISCOM, École Internationale de Tunnön, and Campus MBS de Paris. Under the guidance of faculty from these institutions, students gained comprehensive insights into the distinctive features and admission requirements of various master's programs offered by our French partner universities. These visits provided students with clearer direction regarding overseas further studies and future career planning.

In addition to the competition, students participated in French cultural courses and visited renowned landmarks such as the Musée d'Orsay, the Palace of Versailles, the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral, experiencing firsthand France’s rich historical and cultural heritage. This activity broadened the students’ international perspectives and deepened their understanding of French culture, while also strengthening the academic exchange and collaboration between our French program and its French partner institutions.
