About Academic Exchange Weeks

The Graduate School of Human Development and Environment holds Academic Weeks in October and November every year. Academic Exchange Weeks have been carried out for the purpose of international exchange in academics since 2008. Many researchers are invited from overseas, and a series of research meetings are held during the period. Not only faculty members but also graduate and undergraduate students take an active role in the events. It is a great opportunity for participants to discuss problems beyond their research fields.
