SHORT-TERM PROGRAM

I just want to say that exchange program can be a life-changing experience for anyone since it pushes you out of your comfort zone and give you a chance to broaden your horizontal of the world.

Thanks to ​Office of External and Public Relations, ISSC and HUFS, I had my greatest experience during my university life.
