Purpose

This program is a new international exchange program based on the Joint Degree Program that Hiroshima University has been conducting for over 10 years in collaboration with multiple universities in Europe. Focusing on important themes for economic security between Japan and Europe, such as “AI technology” and “marine and maritime affairs,” the program partners with five universities that offer cutting-edge research and education in these fields. It provides valuable learning and exchange opportunities for master’s students to deepen their expertise in these areas and expand their international perspectives.

Furthermore, through the implementation of this exchange program, we aim to strengthen networks among researchers and deepen partnerships between universities, with the goal of establishing a solid foundation for future research and student exchanges between Hiroshima University and European institutions.
