To encourage and expand SEM (School of Ecnomics and Management) faculty exchanges and cooperation with European/American, as well as other world-class universities, to attract more outstanding international students from world-renowned universities to exchange in the School, and to build an exchange platform for young scientific research talents, SEM has formulated the Funding Management Measures for International Exchange Students of World-renowned Universities.

For postgraduate students who engage in academic exchanges in the School for no less than 3 months, travel expenses will be supported (economy class, with an upper limit of 5,000 yuan).
