Cross-boundary learning

You will leave the campus and step into the field. By experiencing the field, the problem will take root in your mind as a real problem. By going back and forth between the field and the campus, you will develop problem-solving skills that can be put to practical use.

Cross-boundary means cross-border learning. Experiencing modern social issues and efforts to improve them in various fields, such as collaboration with companies, field trips, and exchanges with the local community, leads to accepting diverse values. Free yourself from conventional wisdom and preconceptions to broaden your future options.

Team medical experience I attended an educational camp for children with type 1 diabetes.

The participating students worked as volunteer staff, living and eating under the same roof as the other staff, and participated in each program together. Through the program, they were able to deepen their understanding of the disease while also interacting with other staff, mainly from medical professions such as doctors, nurses, and nutritionists.
