A business administration college official said, “The program offers our students the opportunity to gain practical knowledge in the international trade field of study, which has been obtained so far from classrooms. Participation in the program will improve the students’ understanding of Chinese international trade practices and methodologies as well as enable the students to gain valuable insight into Chinese culture and society, which will be used to design the future of international trade in Korea.” The CNU College of Business Administration is endeavoring to expand its education capacity including the library and its book collection.
