What Students Say About SET
SET_CC_18 student - Yuan He
Learning is a process to complete oneself and to add up one’s inner-value. “Learning is never easy”, I always say that to myself. But luckily in SET, teachers are conscientious and have a sense of responsibility, build up a strong and positive atmosphere of learning here.

SET_17 student -XinBei Chen
It was very challenging for me to learn SET courses at the beginning. However, one of the most unforgettable experiences changed my mind, it was when the teacher leading us on one group project, we could freely express our opinions and ideas and cooperate with each other, and we always spared no effort to help each other and solve problems. This pleasant and efficient learning experience also influenced my future career planning.
