The Global Learning Center (GLC) hosted two Tohoku University Japanese Programs (TUJPs), short-term student exchange programs, in a face-to-face format during the second semester of FY2024. Among these, TUJP Winter 2, held from January 15 to January 28, 2025, welcomed 62 participants from partner universities in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, Germany, and South Korea.
Through lectures on Japanese language and culture, a field trip to an area affected by the earthquake, and interactions with domestic and international students at Tohoku University, the participants enhanced their Japanese language skills and deepened their understanding of Japan and Tohoku University.
In the first semester of FY2025, we are preparing to offer two TUJP sessions from June to August 2025.
