ISU Global Linkage: A World Connected

A Campus Full of Cultures

ISU continues to be a home for students from around the world. Cultural Festival 2025 showed this beautifully, with performances, traditional costumes, and stories shared proudly on stage. These moments remind us why diversity matters. It makes campus feel alive. It lets students learn from one another in ways that go beyond textbooks.

Walking through ISU today means hearing different languages, seeing traditions from many places, and feeling the energy of a truly international community. It was a celebration of identity, connection, and the shared values that make I-Shou University a global hub of learning and collaboration. Beyond the festival’s vibrant atmosphere, it served as a reminder of how cultural diversity enriches our university experience.

Stronger Partnerships, Wider Opportunities

Over the past year, ISU welcomed delegations and academic leaders from several partners, including universities in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Each visit brought new conversations about joint programs, exchange opportunities, and collaborative research. These relationships help us build a campus that feels open, curious, and ready to grow.

Our newest agreements support more student exchanges, more visiting faculty, and more shared projects that bring global ideas into our classrooms. Every partnership strengthens our students’ paths to international learning.

this is really a valuable partnership, and we appreciate to have a strong partner in international mobilization on the other side of the globe.

Outbound Mobility: Opening Doors for ISU Students

More ISU students packed their bags for exchange programs, study trips, and short-term cultural learning abroad. These experiences help students gain confidence, global awareness, and a deeper understanding of themselves.

Whether they spent a semester in Europe, joined a short program in Asia, or participated in a field trip overseas, each student returned with new perspectives that enrich our entire campus.

Go for it! It can be challenging, but the experience is incredibly rewarding. Be open to new cultures, embrace opportunities, and make the most of your time abroad.

Looking Forward

As we move into the new semester, ISU will continue expanding its global network. More opportunities, more exchanges, more voices shaping our community. We believe an international campus is not built through a single event or agreement but through steady, meaningful connections made every day.

Thank you for being part of ISU’s journey. The world is closer than ever, and we are excited for where these connections will take us next.
