On Sunday, June 7, Kyoto University of Foreign Studies (KUFS) held an open campus event.

During the opening session in Morita Memorial Hall, the school's Liko Lehua Hula Dance Club treated visitors to a performance of their "World Sound Journey." This gave everyone a better idea of each department's unique qualities as well as cultural facets of countries and regions around the world.

For the "Student Growth Stories" segment, a currently enrolled student in the Department of British and American Studies, Faculty of Foreign Studies talked about their personal challenges and growth in language studies via experiences at KUFS.

Mini-lectures and departmental introductions were held to communicate the education and characteristics of KUFS' various departments. Participants took part in a special two-language simultaneous class session covering English and Italian to experience the school's multilingual education for themselves.

The Premium Campus Tours led by current students, which required reservations in advance, were fully booked. Participants gave positive feedback, with many saying how pleasant the campus environment was.

In addition, the event included explanations on entrance examinations and study abroad programs, an explanatory session on careers in the airline industry, an EIKEN Test preparatory workshop, a "Touch the World" session where participants could casually interact with faculty and students, and many other helpful segments.

We were pleased to see so many in attendance despite the rainy weather.

The next open campus is scheduled for Sunday, July 12.

If you're looking to learn more about education in KUFS' various academic departments or take in the general feel of the campus itself, or simply searching for the academic subject that best suits you, we encourage you to stop by. We look forward to seeing you at KUFS!
