"Digital Campus Consortium International Symposium" will be held in December 15, 2007.
The Digital Campus Consortium (DCC) holds the international symposium to summarize the achievements on the various international joint projects conducted with partner Asian Universities toward the inauguration of the Asia Cyber College. Faculty and students from Waseda and overseas universities participating in the projects jointly make a report on their own projects during the symposium. Looking at the results of the projects as prototypes for the Asia Cyber College, we hope to share our vision of the future higher education integrated with Asian countries.
