On behalf of Hue University, Vice President Dr. Le Manh Thanh also explained that they highly estimate both the quality and the achievement of this cooperative educational program between Okayama University and Hue University.

In this program, students mainly study subjects related to their major (agriculture or environmental science) at Hue University during the first one year. After that, they learn Japanese language for 6 months at Hue University of Foreign Language. Then, they will be transferred to related graduate schools at Okayama University. Finally, they will receive Master’s Degree from Okayama University after they complete the course.

Okayama University places great expectation on the further development of this program, which we believe it is a great impact for getting more and more excellent international students not only for this program, but also for whole Okayama University.
