 During this meeting, international students shared lunch with the faculty members and shared their difficulties while studying abroad and their suggestions for the school in an open atmosphere, and a new department, the department of international exchange (Service Management major/Aviation Operation management major) was introduced. This new addition has been created to support foreign/international students outside the quota starting next year.
