SFC Events

SFC Tanabata Festival

SFC's summer festival is the highlights of every academic year. Planned and organized solely by students, this event enable students, faculty, staff, alumni and visitors to come together as a community and enjoy summer. Typical festival attractions, such as food stalls selling traditional snacks, flea markets and game booths, are complemented by performances where students display their talents in a myriad of interests ranging from dancing and singing to martial arts and cheerleading. The festivals reach their climax in the evening with spectacular fireworks that light up the night sky.

SFC Open Research Forum(ORF)

The SFC Open Research Forum (ORF) is an annual event hosted by the Keio Research Institute at SFC, starting from its inaugural event in 1996. Projects from each laboratory introduce the latest research and results through poster exhibitions, demonstrations, workshops, and panel discussions.
