Online promotion events for the Future Global Leadership undergraduate courses (hereafter, FGL) were conducted in February and March 2023 for reputable high schools in India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Venezuela, Kazakhstan, and Indonesia. In each event an “FGL Student Ambassador,” a current FGL student, joined as a moderator, and assisted the presentations by professors in English explaining by the local language. In addition, the student ambassador everytime gave an outstanding presentation about their experiences at Tohoku University.
