It was a great pleasure and honor for the Dean of the Business School, Prof. Fouad Zmokhol, to actively participate in the board meeting of the Confucius Institute in Shenyang, China, which aimed at strengthening the cooperation between USJ and Shenyang National University. The official discussions were highly productive, but equally important were the informal quality moments shared, which helped build very strong ties and sincere friendships. Many joint projects and initiatives are currently underway. We hope for stability in our region, which will allow us to further develop this strategic cooperation and collaboration.
