Looking back at the university years: “It has been more than 7 years since I left the "Oriental" home where I and my fellow students of K43 (1998-2002) had the most beautiful years of university life, where we were fortunate to receive useful lectures from the dedicated teachers of the Oriental Studies Department. The valuable comprehensive knowledge that I and my friends were taught by the teachers has greatly helped each of us in our current work and helped us to be more confident in our future career paths... From here, we not only gained valuable academic knowledge but also the "teacher-student relationship", the closeness like a big family has helped the boys and girls who are about to enter a challenging life to have many early life lessons about life experience, about the meaning of a humane pedagogical environment as the name of the school implies. Personally, up to now and forever, I am proud that I chose and was fortunate to "live" in "the Oriental home". "my second home" is here. And although I am no longer directly under this beloved roof, information about the steps and daily development of the faculty is always an indispensable part of my luggage in my present and future life. I hope that one day I can return and contribute my small part to the growth of this happy home - the Faculty of Oriental Studies.
