A campus that spreads to the world and connects to the world.
In a rapidly evolving global society, it is essential to acquire an international sense and global perspective in business and life, as well as acquire intercultural understanding and communication skills using languages other than native language. Shimonoseki City University has designated "contributing to the development of local communities and the international community" as one of the objectives of education and research, and encourages students to engage in global activities and actively supports them. The world-wide Friendship Exchange Agreement University, the provision of a variety of international exchange and experience opportunities for students, an international campus with the acceptance of international students from overseas, and various events where cross-cultural exchange and international understanding can be deepened within the university are the great attractions of Shimonoseki City University. It is the foundation that fosters "international power" that is important in fostering a well-balanced, well-educated and highly educated profession.

Positive feeling of wanting to convey The spirit of challenge is my own food
I was not confident in myself, so I decided to study abroad as a big challenge in order to change myself. Originally, I liked languages and studied multiple things, but I was particularly attracted to the phrases that show the sound of Korean and the unique culture. I decided to study abroad in Dong-eui University that there were few Japanese students in order to improve Korean language and learn Korean culture.
What I struggled during my study abroad was speaking. I was not good at talking to others, but when I inspired myself and talked, everyone listened seriously and taught me words that I couldn't understand. Even if you are not good at talking or don't understand the word, nothing will start if you don't speak. It's important to have a desire to convey, or to try anyway. Let's try it because most things can be done through this study abroad! I'm now able to take on a variety of challenges.
Study Abroad (6 months or 1 year)
Students will study abroad at an overseas partner institution while enrolled in the university, and the period of study abroad is included in the four-year period of study. In addition, credits earned at the host university will be recognized as credits of the university after returning to Japan through the prescribed procedures.
