 This partnership between Purdue Engineering and NCKU is a combined research and education program. One of the elements is a 3 plus 1 plus 1 program where NCKU students will spend three years at NCKU and then one additional year at Purdue to complete their NCKU bachelor's degree and then one more year at Purdue to finish up their Purdue Engineering master's degree program. The partnership also includes a summer program where the NCKU students will have an opportunity to be on campus to get familiar with the campus life as well as taking a class from a Purdue faculty member. I wanted to join the summer program because I want to visit Purdue University in person to get a feeling of what it's like being here. I think the summer program will help me because I get to learn how to work with people from different backgrounds and professions. I wanted to participate in this summer program because I'm planning to study here for my master's. I wanted to do this summer program because I wanted to know how it feels like being a student here at Purdue. I'm planning to pursue my master's degree here so I think getting to know the environment and what's it like being here will really help. The partnership between NCKU and Purdue is very valuable because we know that Purdue is the top university in the U.S. and that we can learn a lot from Purdue, neither in education or in research. I think that the summer program in Purdue helps the NCKU students a lot. They can experience the American culture, especially the campus here in Purdue. Second, they have some lectures provided by the Purdue faculty members. I really like talking to the people here because everyone seems really nice and welcoming. I think it's really cool that everyone here is kind of okay with showing their individuality. I thought that people might be impatient with us because of the language barrier, but actually people are very nice and friendly. I think my favorite part so far is the tour in campus. So we see the students as a way to encourage faculty to develop more collaborations on research as well as education. And we see a broader engagement between NCKU and Purdue. I would recommend the summer program because everyone here is planning on studying abroad for a graduate program, and it's good to know everyone. I think it's a perfect opportunity for us to get to know here and also the culture. I really recommend everyone to come and participate in this program because you can learn a lot of different things, and you can also see different scenery here. I would recommend this summer program to every student in Taiwan. I would like to recommend this summer program to all Taiwan students.
