Keio University Graduate School of Law Held a Gathering for International Students (12/4)
Since its establishment, Keio University Law School has upheld "internationalization" as one of its core principles in providing legal professional training. As our Law School will soon celebrate its 10th anniversary, in a world of ever-increasing globalization and looking toward further advancement in the next decade, we aim to begin training "global legal professionals" who can actively participate in the formation and operation of the global legal order. Specifically, we are currently planning key initiatives such as: (1) promoting international exchange with other Asian countries, (2) enhancing overseas dispatch programs for outstanding current and former students (especially short-term dispatches for graduates utilizing the "gap term," the period between the bar examination and the start of legal apprenticeship), and (3) promoting on-campus globalization.
Therefore, starting this academic year, as part of initiative (3), we held a gathering for international students on Tuesday, December 4, to provide an opportunity for interaction between international students and current students of the law school. Many faculty members and current students of the Graduate School of Law enjoyed interacting with the international students.
