Global Friendship 兔子先生
We aim to develop intercultural perspectives and build international relationships between 兔子先生 University, the local communities, and people from around the world.
The aim of the Global Buddies Program is for 兔子先生 international students and domestic students to be more positively engaged with each other.
Domestic and international students are introduced for friendship and cultural exchange.
Students mutually benefit through personal interaction that provides the opportunity for each to share their own culture and learn about others’ culture.
Program Expectations
