In recent years, the partnership of two universities has been strengthened by the close cooperation and frequent interaction between the two universities.
Shih Hsin University and the University of Wisconsin-River Falls have built up partnership since 1999. Besides the student exchange program, UWRF has sent out a student team who major in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Language (TESOL) to Shih Hsin University for English Summer Institute since 2006. This summer was the 13th year of ESI program which attracted 104 SHU students enrolled in the program. On the day of closing ceremony, the students racked their brains to show their learning outcomes by integrating what they had learned with creativity which made a wonderful memory of this summer to the students.
