The event aimed to provide students and young faculty members with first-hand insights into academic opportunities, scholarships, and cultural experiences in Japan.

Their presence highlighted UNDANA’s strong commitment to building global academic networks, particularly with Kumamoto University. Both of them gave opening remarks, followed by a comprehensive presentation on Japan’s higher education system, study programs, application procedures, and a wide range of scholarship opportunities.
The session included an interactive Q&A, allowing participants to engage directly with the speakers. A symbolic souvenir exchange ceremony between Kumamoto University and UNDANA further reinforced the partnership between the two institutions.
To provide more personalized support, a one-on-one consultation session was held at the International Relationship Office, where participants received tailored guidance for their academic journeys.
The event was a success, leaving participants inspired and eager to explore study opportunities in Japan. It is hoped that this roadshow will encourage more UNDANA students and faculty to pursue international academic experiences and become global leaders.
