Since Jilin University lecturers are experts in teaching Chinese as a foreign language, lecturers from both universities can be exchange lecturers to enhance educational efficiency in the future. Significantly, students from Walailak University in the Chinese program will get the option to travel to China to improve their Chinese language skills.
