Message to Potential Candidates to Ogawa Seminar

When I think about international cooperation, I think that the most important thing in order to continue to sustainable growth is the development of human recourse and education, I decided to learn under professor Ogawa. In Ogawa seminar, there are many students who are from various countries and have various backgrounds, so you can get stimulated good every time. Also I think a lot of internship through a wide network of contacts Prof. Ogawa is one of attractive thing in Ogawa seminar. In this seminar, door to the world is open widely. You can have a lot of opportunity if you move active. “Be proactive” is key word in Ogawa seminar.
