Students of both sides are sent to study on exchange programs. In 2007, the Bretagne District of France donated a series of French original books to the Department and set up a French Language Resources Center in the School of Foreign Languages and Literature at Shandong University. Every year, the department sends students to study as exchange students for an academic year in such famous universities as Wuhan University, Xiamen University, East China Normal University.
