Her professional guidance greatly benefited the international students, enhancing their confidence to meet challenges.

At the end of the event, the international students expressed their aspirations and confidence for the future, thanking the university and teachers for their hard work. They stated that they would cherish the opportunity to actively integrate into campus life and lay a solid foundation for their academic and career development.

The successful psychological group counseling event not only provided a platform for the 2024 international students to showcase themselves and enhance friendships but also laid a solid psychological foundation for their future studies and life in China. The University will continue to pay attention to the needs of international students, continuously innovate in mental health education models, and safeguard the comprehensive development of international students.
