Zhihang YANG / HEC Montreal
I went to HEC Montreal, Canada as an exchange student in the fall of 2019, which was a great business school with advanced facilities located in the cultural city, Montreal, Quebec. The biggest gain for me from this exchange experience was to immerse myself into 100% English education environment, enabled me not only improve my English capacity but also experienced the different education concept between the Chinese school and the western one. In comparison with the courses I learn from the Chinese school, there were more practical opportunities and the interaction between professors and students in the class in HEC so that I could absorb the knowledge more efficiently and solidify my theoretical basis in the practice.
Besides the study, I also heard more voices and insights from different people with diverse cultural backgrounds after the thorough communications with them, which deepened my understanding of the cultural difference and triggered the contemplation of my personal and social development. Generally, this exchange experience is a fantastic and unforgettable memory for me, it broadens my horizon and helps me to form the international vision, I firmly believe it’s where my global career starts.
