Concordia University Chicago’s College of Business has a partnership with Hebei University of Economics and Business (HUEB) in Northern China for international students to learn on our campus. This program contains mainly undergraduate business students, but there are also some graduate students making a total of 60 students on campus. The national college exam is given to students and their scores go for admission. This exam also helps students decide which major to have once they are in college. <\/span><\/p>\n

Once students come to America many like to change their name or they go by their last name because their names may be hard to pronounce for their American peers. One student named Jiabao Ren changed her name to Cecilia. Another student named Liushuai Wang changed their name to Jackson.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI chose my name according to my favorite letters and pronunciation,\u201d said Cecilia (Jiabao Ren).<\/span><\/p>\n

Student Services Manager Ellen Newman helps with all international students. Ellen Newman said, \u201cThis year, there is a brand new ESL program. It is a five week course offered in the summer for eight week courses that begin October 22nd.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This program helps students learn English and helps prepare them for certain classes. Many Chinese international students are taking at least 12 credit hours during eight week courses. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kun Liang-Rittling is a Liaison for CUC\u2019s China program and she has been here on campus for 12 years. She works with many of the international students. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCertain students may come back for their Master of Business Administration (MBA) or their Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA). 50% of students come back to finish their MBA and 20% come back to earn their DBA. Currently there are 8 MBA students and 4 DBA students\u201d said Liang-Rittling. <\/span><\/p>\n

Every year, the Chinese student population increases and their test scores improve. Many students prefer our teaching atmosphere on campus because it is much smaller than their university in China. They have excellent academic performance and social engagement which leads them to make the Dean\u2019s list. Several students received this achievement their first semester at CUC.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
