The two sides discussed new collaborative orientation based on previous cooperation results
In UEF's perspective, the collaboration with University of Fukui not only brings academic benefits but also contributes to promote the goal of internationalizing education, affirming the university's position in developing internationally standardized training programs. Since 2019, UEF has implemented a mobility program at the University of Fukui, providing students with opportunities to experience Japan's modern educational environment. Participants in the program have gained valuable hands-on experiences in professional knowledge, adaptability, and integration skills in a multinational setting.
Professor Koji Kobata emphasized that University of Fukui aims to continue strengthening its partnership with UEF, expanding student exchange programs, and creating opportunities for faculty members from both institutions to collaborate on research and share teaching experiences. This is also an important step forward in offering students from both universities more options for studying, researching, and personal development in an international environment.
