Vulcanus in Japan 2023/24 students gathered at Naganuma School for the 'End of School Reporting Ceremony' on 15 December. The 16 participants successfully completed the first part of the Vulcanus programme, a four-month intensive Japanese language course in Tokyo. Alongside the language course, they also engaged in insightful seminars on Japanese culture and politics. For the ceremony, the students made a Japanese presentation on their academic backgrounds and the themes of their forthcoming internships, showcasing their language skills honed during the intense course undertaken since September. The event concluded with a small reception.
The participants of the programme arrived in Japan in September 2023 and started their 8-month internships in Japanese host companies in January 2024. Congratulations to all the students from the Centre!
