2023 CA+inD Summer Short-Term Outbound Program
For 31 days between August 31 (Thu) and October 1 (Sun), 2023, Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry conducted the "2023 CA+inD Summer Short-Term Outbound Program," for which it sent seven undergraduate students to its CA+inD partner universities.
This program is part of the CAMPUS Asia Plus Program. CAMPUS Asia Plus Program is part of the Inter-University Exchange Project established by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT). The aim of this program is to nurture multimodal global leaders, that is, individuals who are capable of selecting and applying knowledge and skills acquired from a multitude of perspectives, in a manner appropriate to the needs of education, research, health care, industry, and governance, while also understanding how these different contexts interact.
Seven students from the first to the fifth year of the School of Dentistry participated in this program. Two students were sent to Seoul National University and Yonsei University in Korea, four to Chiang Mai University and Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, and one to Universitas Indonesia. During the month-long program, the students participated in lectures, hospital visits, and various cultural experiences coordinated by staff at the host institutions.
The students who participated in the 2023CA+inD Short-term Inbound Program in August interacted with Tohoku students in their countries and shared their respective cultures, making this a very satisfying experience for the Tohoku students. This time, we were also hosted by Chiang Mai University in Thailand, where we received generous support from faculty, staff, and students. All students had a fulfilling study abroad experience and gained valuable experience that will serve them well in the future.
