OUR StudentsCPGLS is a place full of diversity and inclusiveness. As an international student, I have received a lot of help from my teachers, faculties and classmates, so I can well integrate here. The most amazing thing was I met many famous experts here and I listened to a lot of lectures by them at close range. This greatly broadened my horizons. At class, professors not only taught legal knowledge, but also included the legal research methodology, the use of advanced software, writing skills, career development and other comprehensive education. These have benefited me for life.
