April 26, 2022

We will be holding the "Mirai no Watashi" (The Future Me) event, a seminar for students to think about their future life plans.

We have invited women who are graduates of this university and work in various industries to be our "Catalysts (narrators)." We will hear their firsthand accounts based on their own experiences, covering topics such as how they got their jobs, the satisfaction they find in their work, how they balance their work and private lives, and how to deal with the various anxieties and concerns they may face in the future. Why not take this opportunity to imagine yourself in 5, 10, or 20 years, expand your future options, and think about the person you want to be—your "Mirai no Watashi" (The Future Me)?
