On Saturday 1 July 2017, Xiamen University Fung Scholars came together in Xiamen to join the Pre-Departure Gathering. The gathering was attended by nine local Fung Scholars. The returnees shared their stories of their exchange study at the University of Hong Kong, provided some useful tips and advice to the newly selected Fung Scholars. The event also provided a great opportunity for the local Fung Scholars to know more about the Victor and William Fung Foundation and get connect with each other.
