In order to strengthen international exchanges and cooperation, provide students with more opportunities to learn about foreign universities, and help students do a good job in study abroad planning and pre-departure orientation, on the morning of April 13, the 2023 Study Abroad Pre-departure Orientation, hosted by Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange (CSCSE) of Ministry of Education, China and organized by International College(IC) of Xiamen University, was held in Building 4 of Zhangzhou Campus, Xiamen University. The event was strongly supported by CSCSE and nearly 30 foreign partner universities from the United Kingdom, Singapore, Hungary and other countries. More than 300 students attended in the orientation.

At the beginning, the teachers of the study abroad working group held two lectures for graduates of different study abroad programs of IC, explaining in detail the procedures for studying abroad and the relevant preparations before going abroad, focusing on on-site training for students in terms of entry registration, safe study, master's application and the latest study abroad policies.

After the lecture, the students came to the exhibition area of foreign institutions to communicate face-to-face with teachers from foreign institutions, learn more about their favorite school majors, requirements, accommodation applications, etc., and clarify their intention to study. The study abroad working group and teachers from foreign institutions patiently answered students' questions, helped them better understand their study and life abroad, and provided professional and meticulous guidance for them to study abroad smoothly.

This pre-departure orientation not only provides students with the opportunity to get to know foreign institutions closely, but also allows them to obtain detailed university information and authoritative study abroad information, providing strong support and guarantee for them to study abroad smoothly.
