I was fortunate enough to be awarded a travel grant from the Health Promotion: The Joy of Sports and Exercise\u2019s AY2021 Travel Grant Program for Graduate Students to support my study abroad experience at the University of Florida. In order to receive the support, I contacted the professor from UF (Thanks to my supervisor Prof. Sato Shintaro\u2019s recommendation), prepared documentation of my academic program and study plan, received professional interview. I am incredibly grateful for the program’s support in making this opportunity possible.<\/p>\n

\u2162. About Studying at University of Florida<\/h3>\n

My project period is from January 31 to March 19, 2023. As an exchange student, I had the opportunity to take a variety of courses that were directly applicable to my future study. I took Sport Sociology and Evaluation classes, also attended PhD discussion seminar and Prof. Yong Jae Ko\u2019s lab meeting every week. I was able to learn from professors who are experts in the field and who provided me with real-world insights and experiences, especially about my interest topic: flow experience and esports spectatorship. One of the highlights of my academic experience was a discussion with lab members about my master final thesis, they all provide valuable suggestions. I also had the opportunity to visit the training facilities for sports students and learned about the training programs of local athletes, which allowed me to gain hands-on experience in the industry.<\/p>\n

The academic culture at the University of Florida was challenging but rewarding. The professors held high expectations for their students, but also provided ample support to help us succeed. I appreciated the emphasis on critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as well as the collaborative nature of many of the classes.<\/p>\n

\u2163. Life in Florida<\/h3>\n

Living in Florida was a unique experience that allowed me to explore a new culture and lifestyle. I have a good friendship with lab members, which provided me with a supportive community. Although it was almost impossible to get around without a car, thanks to my friends, they took me to many places, and gave me the opportunity to explore the city of Gainesville and attend local events and festivals.<\/p>\n

Another challenge of living in Florida was adjusting to the hot and humid weather, which was quite different from what I was used to. However, I quickly adapted and learned to enjoy the outdoor activities that the warm weather allowed for, such as hiking and swimming.<\/p>\n

\u2164. To Conclude<\/h3>\n

Overall, my study abroad experience at the University of Florida was an incredible opportunity that allowed me to gain valuable academic and personal experiences. I developed important skills such as group brainstorming, gained more knowledge in my interest field of sport management, as well as learned a new perspective on the world. I am incredibly grateful for the support of Waseda University’s Travel Grant Program and the University of Florida, and I would highly recommend this study abroad program to other Sport Management students. Finally, I express my heartfelt gratitude to the professors and lab members of the Sport Management departments at Waseda University and the University of Florida for their unwavering kindness, care, and support.<\/p>\n
