For existing study-abroad system of LCB, here are my recommendations to improve the quality and efficiency of the system:

This can be a great approach for undergraduate students to expend their global study experiences and understand global business information. Additionally, this method can encourage students, faculty and staff to pay more attentions on international courses in order to increase their incentives to get in touch with international business studies. Moreover, the exchange study abroad program helps LCB to attract foreign students and professors. It avoids LCB to pay more money for academic communication in other countries.
