Infection Prevention and Safety Initiatives
1. Extension of payment deadlines for school fees as well as individual contact and follow-up with all international students.
2. Use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) to implement a ""For the Students"" strategy across the entire university, and to make back-ups (ex: online student consultations, online career consultations, etc.).
3. As a general rule, classes are held in-person, while upholding our infection-prevention policies. However, in order to flexibly adapt should the infection situation worsen, we have systems prepared (using classes that combine in-person and on-demand classes, etc.). We also offer support for on-demand classes for students who have not yet entered the country due to the pandemic.
4. Transparent paritions have been installed at student-facing counters in order to prevent the spread of infection. Professors are to wear masks, and hand sanitizer will be made available across campus.
5. Information on part-time jobs will be provided to international students who have lost their jobs, etc.
