Courtesy visit to Kumamoto University by Prof. Sirish L. Shah of University of Alberta
On May 26th, Dr. Sirish L. Shah, an Honorary Doctor of Kumamoto University and a professor at the University of Alberta in Canada, paid a courtesy visit to President Taniguchi and Vice President Ihara (in charge of international exchange). The University of Alberta has an ongoing academic collaboration agreement with our university.
Kumamoto University entered into an inter-university academic collaboration agreement with the University of Alberta in 2001. Since then, we have overseen numerous academic exchanges involving both teachers and students, and sent students overseas on language seminars and summer programs. On this visit, Dr. Shah and President Taniguchi exchanged views on the level of participation in overseas language seminars and the promotion of future relations, and agreed to further develop future relations between our institutions.
