He also acknowledged the College of Management for maintaining AACSB accreditation and actively engaging in academic collaborations with prestigious universities across Europe and North America. Dr. Mills extended a sincere invitation to Fu Jen to recommend students for CIAM’s graduate programs and scholarship opportunities.
