The Center for Education of Global Communication (CEGLOC) held the completion ceremony for the Intensive Japanese Course for the Japanese Government (Monbukagakusho) Scholarship Students who entered the University of Tsukuba in October 2022 with the participation of related faculty members, on February 7.

At the completion ceremony, Associate Professor Vanbaelen Ruth of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (Deputy Director of the Japanese Language Education Division, CEGLOC), gave a speech of encouragement.

A total of nine students have completed the October 2022 Class. At first, they could not come to Japan under the harsh conditions of the travel restrictions to Japan. Still, soon after, they could go to Japan and have learned basic Japanese language skills to support their smooth academic life in Japan. They are expected to become more familiar with the Japanese language and culture and to advance their research.

The students who entered the Intensive Japanese Course starting in October 2022 are from the following nations:
Republic of Peru, Republic of Indonesia, Republic of Azerbaijan, Republic of the Union of Myanmar, Republic of Liberia, Federal Republic of Nigeria (2 students), Commonwealth of The Bahamas, Republic of Rwanda (9 students in total)
