ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥

From 4th to 11th October 2017, the International Center of ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ (ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥) accepted 8 hearingimpaired students from the Special Education College of Changchun University for the Japanese Language and Culture Special Program. 

Since its launch in 2010, the Japanese Language and Culture Special Program has been held annually for the overseas youngsters who are interested in Japanese Language and culture. The program aims to help the participants deepen their understanding of Japan and to encourage them to come back to study at ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ in future. It was the first time for the ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ International Center to accept hearing-impaired students for this program.

While attending the program, the students from Changchun University experienced the Japanese sign language, interacted with ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ students, and had a chance to visit many historical sites such as the Atomic Bomb Dome, ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ Peace Memorial Museum, and Itsukushima Shrine in Miyajima. In addition, they paid a visit to the local special support school and had a guided tour of Mazda Motor Corporation.

After attending the program, the participants expressed that they are very keen to come back to Japan to study in future. We do hope that many of them will decide to come back to ÌÇÐÄÖ±²¥ to pursue their studies.
