Following the Sendai city and university campus tour using a local transportation system for visitors called \u201cLoople Sendai\u201d, the students attended lectures about \u201cNanoTerasu\u201d by Prof. J. Yoshida at SRIS and Prof. E. Nango at IMRAM\/SRIS on the Aobayama campus. Then they moved to the Kawauchi campus to participate in Prof. Koike's FGL class with current FGL and local students.<\/p>\r\n

After coming back to the GLC building on the Kawauchi campus, the wrap-up session was held to share their experiences at the program. Completion certificates were awarded to all Thai students and Dr. Parichat as an honor for their completion of the program and contribution to the field of science.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The very special days of the Sakura Science Program finally have come to an end. We are hoping to welcome such prospective students from various countries to introduce our FGL program and to create more opportunities for studying at Tohoku University.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
