The GCCU aims to offer a unique platform leveraging the diverse strengths and resources of global universities. Students will spend 1-2 semesters at Hannan University building foundational knowledge and then participate in a global rotation program from the 3rd to the 7th semester, studying major subjects in different countries each semester. The final semester will be dedicated to overseas internships or project-based courses at Hannan University.
The program will employ design-thinking-based classes that enhance global problem-solving skills by identifying and addressing issues faced by various countries. Both online and offline methods will be used to provide systematic and innovative education tailored to each major. The education will be experiential, field-centered, and entrepreneurship-focused, incorporating certification systems for individual programs, universities, and qualifications.
