◆Overview
National University Corporation Okayama University (Headquarters: Kita-ku, Okayama City, President: Yasutomo Nasu) aims to develop students who can play an active role internationally, and conducts language training and short-term overseas training during summer and spring vacations. During this year’s spring break, we sent a total of 69 students to language training at the University of Adelaide (Australia), York University (UK), and University of Malaya
(Malaysia).
In the program at the University of Adelaide, one of the training destinations, the students intensively study English with Japanese and foreign students from outside Okayama University, and experience Australian society first-hand through homestays and interactions with local university students. . The purpose is not only to improve English skills through practical learning, but also to develop the ability to overcome differences and cooperate with others by interacting with people with diverse values and lifestyles on a daily basis.
Kotaro Ozasa, a first-year student in the Faculty of Economics (at the time of his trip), who participated in the program, said, “I am considering long-term study abroad in the future, and I participated in the language training in Adelaide as a stepping stone.At the local language school, I met friends who are striving to achieve high goals such as going to graduate school overseas, and I was inspired and spent a fulfilling month.What I learned most through the training was “Understanding yourself and your home country.” During my stay, my host family asked me about myself and Japan’s “wabi-sabi” culture, and I learned that having a high level of language skills and
understanding other cultures are two important things that can be used globally. It was an eye-opening experience for me, as I thought it was a condition for me to succeed.I would like to improve my language skills in preparation for my future study abroad, and at the same time deepen my understanding of Japanese culture.” .
Okayama University will continue to provide many opportunities for the development of talented people around the world. Please look forward to Okayama University, which continues to promote co-development and co-creation as a regional core and distinctive research university.
