| Comments/PR on exchanges |
| Currently our university promotes student exchange with a lot of universities mainly in Asia. Compared to the number of foreign students whom our university has accepted, the number of Japanese students who have been sent to overseas universities is extremely few. Therefore, our university is making efforts to encourage more Japanese students to study abroad. |
