These programs are aimed at helping students develop into professionals who will "think globally and act locally" with 1) the sophistication needed to make sound social judgments grounded in a broad perspective, 2) a global outlook that will enable them to have meaningful interactions with people from different cultural backgrounds, and 3) the design-mindedness and unfettered imagination to envision wide-ranging, interdisciplinary networks.
(1) Cross-Cultural Understanding Program
Through activities including group work, international students and students from Japan will work together to build a deeper understanding of one another's cultures and traditions, and develop the ability to think and make decisions from a global perspective.
