This summer, 14 Nagoya University undergraduates completed a 5-week program at North Carolina State University, returning safely to Japan last weekend.

Despite challenges like unexpected overnight stays due to flight delays and weather-related schedule changes, students adapted well and had enriching experiences.

Some faced difficulties with group living, illness, or COVID-19, but most maintained good health and delivered strong final presentations.

We're grateful to the GTI staff, ESL teachers, and NC Japan Club members for their support throughout the program.
