Student Buddy Program for International Students

The Student Buddy Program is organized by the University’s International Pioneer Club, which matches international students with locals who can help them learn about Taiwanese culture and adapt to life in Taiwan. The program plays an important role in promoting cultural and language exchange and provides a unique opportunity for international and local students to make new friends and expand their horizons.
