During the meeting, several findings that require attention were discussed, including achievements of student foreign language proficiency, strengthening international research and community engagement, alumnus tracer studies, student study periods, and various student feedback regarding the learning process and internship activities. Additionally, the RTM reviewed the trend of recurring findings from the previous year as well as new findings emerging in the current year.
