On May 26, 15 people, including both researchers and the International Office staff, from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam visited Kobe University, and held a joint meeting with professors from the School of Business Administration and the Graduate School of Economics.
This meeting consisted of 2 parts, and professors from both universities gave presentations in the first part. The presentation session was attended by the following people from Kobe University: HANADA Eva (Associate Professor of the Institute for Promoting International Partnerships), Yan Ma (Professor of the School of Business Administration), MIYAO Manabu (Professor of the School of Business Administration), NAMBA Akio (Professor of the Graduate School of Economics), IWATSUKI Junko (International Academic Coordinator of the Graduate School of Economics).
