Abstract:

Cross Cultural Adjustment is a process that every international student has to go through in his experience of studying abroad. Besides the challenges of language and academic expectation, inevitable loneliness and differences in thinking perspectives are also resources of distress. In this seminar, we would like to focus on emotional well-being in cultural adjustment, discuss menta health issues openly, and promote healthy self-care strategies.
