Student Life
International Exchange
In 2006, the International Office was renovated and a new lounge was opened in a renovated classroom. However, the space was too small and was filled with international students and current students at lunchtime, so the lounge was moved to a larger space in spring 2007. In September 2006, the Special Department program for international students was established. In September 2006, the International Student Special Department Program was established, and at the same time, the International Club was established under the direct control of the International Affairs Division to promote exchange between current students and international students.The International Office serves as the contact point for university-sponsored language training twice a year: in February at University of Washington in United States and in August at Edith Cowan University in Australia. In addition to the language training in August, some of the programs in February are unique programs in specialized fields, such as overseas mechanical engineering training and overseas bioengineering training, where students can learn specialized skills while studying the language. In addition to language training, there are also overseas mechanical engineering training and overseas bioengineering training programs. Anyone, regardless of department, can participate.
