為協助學生提前規劃海外學習與國際視野拓展，國立中山大學管理學院國際經營管理學士 （IBBA）於 10 月 30 日晚間舉辦「2026 IBBA 交換/雙聯返校學生分享會（三）」。本次線上分享會 邀請到 115 級黃容歆（Sheena）同學與 116 級胡蓉（Nina）同學現身說法，分別針對校級「美國雙 聯學位（3+2）」與院級「歐洲交換學習」兩大熱門管道，帶來精準且實用的第一手申請攻略、行 政流程與海外生活經驗傳承。  雙聯學位（3+2）：美國天普大學申辦全攻略、實習與多采海外生活 現正就讀美國天普大學（Temple University）Fox 商學院商業分析（Business Analytics）碩士學位的 115 級黃容歆（Sheena）同學，於會中詳細拆解了美國雙聯學位的申請細節與優勢。黃容歆在美期 間表現優異，不僅擔任天普大學台灣學生會副會長（TSA Vice President），更擔任全球傳播實習生 （Global Communication Intern），累積了豐富的在地領導力與實務經歷。 她指出，選擇 3+2 學碩計畫能在五年內完成大學與碩士學位，時間效益極高；且相比傳統四年大 學加兩年碩士（2+2）的模式，能擁有更豐富且多元的碩士專業選擇（如精算、商業分析、數據科 學、管理學等），不受限於單一領域。 黃容歆也分享了申請準備的關鍵要點與完整時程： 申請文件與檢定：申請需準備英文檢定成績（雅思 IELTS 7.0 或托福 TOEFL 79 分）、推薦信 2 封 、個人履歷（Resume）、未來計畫書（Future Plan）與歷年成績單。若商學院 GPA 較低者，則需額 外考取 GRE。此外，履歷與未來計畫書可寄回天普大學台灣國際辦事處協助修改潤飾。 準備與審查時程：前一年 12 月應考英文檢定；隔年 3 月參加 Temple 座談會；9 月展開申請與面試 ；12 月確認錄取通知。 錄取後行政與抵免：錄取後於 2 月規劃住宿與找室友，同時聯繫 Academic Advisor 進行修課規劃 ；4 月遞交預修抵免單申請；5 月至 8 月間完成 F-1 簽證辦理、繳納 SEVIS 費用、申請 I-20、施打 疫苗與購買醫療保險，於 8 月初出發飛往美國。 生活與治安評估：針對留學城市的選擇，她特別介紹了費城（Philadelphia）的環境與治安數據（ 如謀殺率與總犯罪率排名），提醒學弟妹平時需注意自身安全。同時也分享了在美期間參與感恩節 聚會、萬聖節活動、刻南瓜、遊樂園與城市觀光等豐富的生活實況。  德國曼漢大學交換：選校策略、課程比對與簽證時程實務 前往德國曼漢大學（University of Mannheim）交換學習的 116 級胡蓉（Nina）同學，則聚焦於歐洲 交換學校的選擇策略、課程選修差異以及嚴謹的德國簽證辦理經驗。 在選校思考上，胡蓉建議學弟妹可從「地理位置（是否方便跨國旅行）」、「學校是否提供宿舍」 以及「返校後的學分抵免率」三大核心面向進行綜合評估。在教學體制上，她詳細對比了歐洲常見 的短期集中課程與長期課程： 短期課：課程集中於數天內上完，選課時間與名額較受限，但學習節奏緊湊且較容易通過（個人 經驗）。 長期課：每週固定上課（正課約 1.5 小時），無名額限制且選課彈性較大，但課程難度相對較高 。 針對赴德交換的行政準備與異地生活，她特別分享： 簽證申請與提領帳戶：德國簽證申請標準嚴謹，需提早開立「限制提領帳戶（Expatrio，每月需準 備 992 歐元）」並投保德國醫療保險。她更整理出個人簽證時程供參考（5/7 上傳資料、5/12 補正 訊息、5/13 收到選時間郵件、5/19 至台北 101 交資料、6/3 順利收到護照）。 德國生活實務：介紹了當地宿舍環境與豐富的學校迎新活動；同時提醒學弟妹德國生活常遇到的 日常狀況，例如「德鐵（DB）誤點情形」、「週日超市普遍不營業」等現實細節，並推薦善用 Couchsurfing 等多元住宿體驗。  勇敢跨出舒適圈 打造獨一無二的國際競爭力 國立中山大學 IBBA 課程致力於培養具備全球移動力與跨文化溝通能力的商管人才。透過本次分享 會，兩位講者不僅展示了如何精準規劃申請時程、選課抵免與海外財務生活，更鼓勵學弟妹提早釐 清出國動機與目標，勇敢走向世界，讓海外學習成為人生與職涯發展的重要轉捩點。

Unlocking Global Learning Opportunities: NSYSU IBBA Hosts Overseas Exchange and Dual Degree Sharing Session "Plan ahead for application timelines, carefully compare course structures, and get your visa documents ready well in advance." These practical and crucial reminders were shared by students from the International Business Bachelor Program (IBBA) at National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU). At an online sharing session held on the evening of October 30, two students who recently returned from studying in the United States and Germany shared their personal experiences and practical advice to help younger peers navigate overseas studies and international living. The speakers were Sheena Huang (Class of 2026), who is pursuing a 3+2 dual degree at Temple University in the U.S., and Nina Hu (Class of 2027), who completed an exchange semester at the University of Mannheim in Germany. They covered everything from application requirements and course selection to visa procedures and local life.  Dual Degree (3+2): Temple University Application Guide, Internships, and Student Life Sheena Huang, currently pursuing a Master of Science in Business Analytics at Temple University's Fox School of Business, explained the application details and advantages of the 3+2 dual-degree program. During her time in the U.S., Huang served as Vice President of the Temple University Taiwanese Student Association (TSA) and worked as a Global Communication Intern, gaining valuable leadership and practical experience. She noted that the 3+2 program allows students to earn both a bachelor's and a master's degree within five years, offering high time efficiency. Compared to traditional master's pathways, it also provides a wide range of specialized master's options—such as Actuarial Science, Business Analytics, Data Science, and Management—without restricting students to a single track. Huang outlined key application steps and timelines: Application Documents & Tests: Applicants need to submit language scores (IELTS 7.0 or TOEFL 79), two recommendation letters, a resume, a future plan, and official transcripts. Students with lower business school GPAs may need to take the GRE. Additionally, resumes and future plans can be sent to Temple University's Taiwan International Office for review and feedback. Preparation Timeline: Take language tests by December of the preceding year; attend the Temple information session in March; submit applications and interview in September; and receive admission decisions by December. Post-Admission Steps & Course Credit Pre-Approval: Arrange housing and roommates in February while contacting Academic Advisors to plan course schedules. Submit credit pre-approval forms by April. Between May and August, complete the F-1 visa application, pay SEVIS fees, obtain Form I-20, get required vaccinations, and purchase medical insurance before flying to the U.S. in early August. Living Environment & Safety: Huang suggested evaluating city environments and safety statistics, such as crime rates in Philadelphia, to stay mindful of personal safety. She also shared memorable moments from her time in the U.S., including Thanksgiving gatherings, Halloween pumpkin carving, visiting amusement parks, and city sightseeing.  Exchange at the University of Mannheim: School Selection, Course Structures, and Visa Procedures Nina Hu, who studied as an exchange student at the University of Mannheim in Germany, focused her talk on school selection strategies, academic course structures, and visa preparation. When selecting a university, Hu advised students to evaluate three key criteria: geographic location (for ease of travel), housing availability, and credit transferability back at NSYSU. Regarding course structures in Europe, she highlighted the differences between short-term and long-term courses: Short-term Courses: Classes are condensed into a few days. While enrollment slots and course selection periods are limited, the learning pace is fast, and completion rates are often high based on her personal experience. Long-term Courses: Classes meet weekly (around 1.5 hours per session) with flexible enrollment options and no capacity limits, though course content tends to be more challenging. Hu also shared administrative insights for studying in Germany: Visa Application & Blocked Account: German visa requirements are strict. Students must open a blocked account (such as Expatrio, requiring around €992 per month) and purchase German health insurance early. She provided her personal visa timeline (uploading documents on May 7, revising files on May 12, booking an appointment on May 13, submitting materials in person on May 19, and receiving her passport on June 3). Daily Life in Germany: Hu described student dormitories and university orientation events. She also prepared students for daily realities in Germany, such as frequent Deutsche Bahn (DB) train delays and Sunday store closures, while recommending budget-friendly experiences like Couchsurfing.  Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone for Global Growth The NSYSU IBBA program requires students to complete study abroad experience to foster global mobility and cross-cultural communication skills. Through this sharing session, both speakers demonstrated how to plan application timelines, transfer credits, and manage life abroad, encouraging younger students to clarify their goals early and confidently explore the world.
