The "Business Day" program marked an important milestone with the signing of MOU between the University and 22 businesses. This collaboration not only narrowed the gap between the University and businesses but also strengthened the classroom-business model.

Through direct exchanges and dialogues with businesses, students gained a comprehensive understanding of their future professions, essential knowledge & skills, and employer requirements. This preparation equipped them to excel in internships and adapt smoothly to the business environment without experiencing culture shock.
