Amidst
increasingly globalization,
Keio University is focusing
on advancing international
collaboration. At Keio, the
International Center deals
with various affairs related
to this.
In
recent years, Keio has
concentrated on the
quantifiable aspects of
international collaboration,
for example, it has been
striving to increase the
number of
academic linkage and
collaboration agreements and
the number of students
participating in exchange
programs. That is not to say
that quality has been
forgotten. Now is the time
to focus on qualitative
aspects, ensuring that there
is high quality in our
international
collaborations. |

What exactly is high quality
international collaboration?
One could say that high
quality collaboration in the
case of agreements on
academic linkage and
collaboration provides
sustained, meaningful
interaction for both
institutions in the exchange
of students or faculty
members. However, it is
necessary to develop and
maintain an environment
conducive to building such
relationships. The
International Center at Keio
University strives towards
this goal in its day-to-day
activities.
