Of the total 10 CAMPUS Asia programs adopted for MEXT funding under the “Re-Inventing Japan Project,” three — those implemented by Tokyo Tech and Kyushu University and a program implemented jointly by Nagoya University and Tohoku University — are focused on exchanges in science and engineering fields. On October 16, 2015, Tokyo Tech hosted on its Ookayama Campus a joint reporting session for CAMPUS Asia project leaders and administrative staff from each of those universities. A professor and a CAMPUS Asia program coordinator from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) also joined the session. Participants shared information on their respective CAMPUS Asia program activities in the final year of MEXT’s funding for the project. Ms. Yuka Kubozono from National Institution for Academic Degrees and University Evaluation (NIAD-UE) observed the meeting.
The session was very informative for all involved. Participants were able not only to learn more about the activities of each program but also to discuss objectively topics such as maintenance of program quality across institutions and possible future directions for the exchanges.
Participants:
Kyushu University: Prof. Tetsuo Tanabe, Prof. Dong Wang Nagoya University: Prof. Takahiro Seki, Ms. Ayako Kimata Tohoku University: Prof. Akihiro Morita KAIST: Prof. Jung Kim, Ms. Hyeyoung Lee Tokyo Tech: Prof. Masahiko Hara, Prof. Kana Nishino, Mr. Kazuyoshi Sakamoto, Ms. Hiroko Shimada, Ms. Yukie Watanabe
