Yamagiwa: There are many hopes that Kyoto University wants to participate in a summer school from overseas, but it is struggling with accommodation facilities.At overseas universities such as Oxford and Cambridge, all students leave the dormitory in the summer and vacate for summer school, so you can use it at a low price, but Japanese universities can not do that.If this is resolved, I think there will be quite a few short-term international students.Two new international exchange halls were opened this September.The land is provided by Kyoto City and Kyoto Prefecture.

 Increasing acceptance of short-term study abroad is also desirable for Japanese students.For example, in Kyoto, a faculty member from Kyoto University recently went to the Kyoto Prefectural Kyoto Institute of Library and Archives (belonging to Prefectural University) to teach Kyoto studies to international students, but students are also international students. Through a part-time job that guides you, you can experience the traditions of Kyoto and witness the craftsmanship.After spending four years in college alone, it's a waste to graduate without knowing that.In addition, some international students who I met will invite me to go to England, the United States, and France at a low price, which will help students to open the windows by themselves.

Morikami: Finally, from Professor Ohno attached to Gakugei University.

(I.e.: This year, I was taken care of by myself in the special entrance examination, but at our school, there are many unique students who are focusing on subject research and fieldwork.In the third grade, some students have gained a good reputation in the media for their research on "flatulence sounds and odor-eliminating pants."Our school's globalization is focused on Asia.The school trip is in collaboration with Bangkok and Seoul, and in Thailand, in collaboration with high schools in Chiang Rai in the northern region, about 15 people come and go every year (Exchange program with Princess Chulabhorn Science College Chiang Rai (PCCCR), Kingdom of Thailand). ).He also passed Harvard University three years ago, Harvard University and Yale University last year, and Oxford University this year.In career education, we invite lively seniors around the age of 30 to talk, but 11 out of XNUMX are girls.Girls are playing an active role without hesitation, even after graduating from school and after graduating.

Morikami: Speaking of the entrance exams for the school we are gathering today, Mr. Toshimaoka will stop recruiting at high school three years later.It is expected that Dr. Ohno, who has many energetic girls, will be attracting attention as an alternative destination for girls.Thank you to all the teachers for your busy schedule today.
