7/12 Partnership Dialogue Series @Fukuoka American Center



We are pleased to announce that, as follows, Kyushu University will hold Partnership Dialogue Series #1 at the Fukuoka American Center with the support of the U.S. Consulate Fukuoka.

The purpose of this workshop lies in sharing and developing the knowledge and experience of the experts in the field, based on specific themes. For faculty and administrative staff, especially those involved in international exchange and international education, this will be a precious opportunity to help promote internationalization in higher education.

For the very beginning of the series, we invite the speaker from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, our strategic partner institution. It is followed by case study sessions, featuring the track records of collaborative efforts in international education programs with U.S. universities. Based on these, in the discussion part, speakers will discuss various topics, including the challenges and the solutions for the implementation of the international education program.
