I have been nominated to study abroad at the University of Kitakyushu for the 2015-2016 academic year! I am very excited to further my education in the Japanese language and culture during my time abroad. Additionally, Kitakyushu was my first choice for study abroad institution. No students have participated in the exchange program between CSUMB and Kitakyushu yet, so I also look forward to exploring this new program and bring back my experience for future students. |
The University of Kitakyushu is located in the city of Kitakyushu, Fukuoka prefecture. Kitakyushu is the northernmost city of Kyushu, which is the southernmost island of Japan, so the city is an important connection between the main island of Japan (Honshu) and Kyushu. |
