Events for International Students
International Center offers a variety of programs for international students to encourage intercultural awareness and to provide opportunities for meeting people and encountering Japanese society. Every year, International Center organizes a short trip known as a “Peace Seminar,” a four-day trip to Nagasaki/Okinawa to learn about peace through hands-on experiences. About 20 students, both Japanese and international, join the seminar and deepen their understanding about peace through cite visits and discussion. This provides an excellent opportunity to interact with Japanese students as well as with local communities through home-stays with Japanese families.
Also, International Center organizes social gatherings, including welcoming and farewell parties, and supports sports festivals for international students in collaboration with the Chuo University International Students Association.
