About studying at <\/strong><strong>University of Toronto<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>My studying abroad was admitted through the International Visiting Graduate Student (IVGS) program and accommodated at the Centre for Sport Policy Studies of KPE at the St. George campus. This research unit is renowned for their scholarly contributions in the fields of sport sociology, physical cultural studies, gender and political studies in sport, as well as sport for development and peace (SDP). Under the supervision of Professor Simon Darnell, who is an expert in SDP and social science research in sport, I was offered a great opportunity to hone my research skills and improve my doctoral study on SDP in China. Prof. Darnell regularly arranged in-person meetings with me so that I could receive feedback and advice on research design and writing, paper publication and collaboration. He also introduced me to fellow professors and graduate students in the research unit which helped me expand my academic network. In addition, I took advantage of Toronto being in a major transit hub in North America to attend several international academic conferences, including the North American Society for Sport History (NASSH) 2023 convention in Washington D.C. and the 2023 World Congress of Sociology of Sport (ISSA) in Ottawa.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 25%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-26622 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f7\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/b12c8b7e401505670006e9aa6ee0e2d0-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-26606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/b12c8b7e401505670006e9aa6ee0e2d0-360x270.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/b12c8b7e401505670006e9aa6ee0e2d0-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/b12c8b7e401505670006e9aa6ee0e2d0.jpg 628w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-26606'>\n\t\t\t\tWith Prof. Simon Darnell \n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f8\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/695e432aa0b80e914efae12cd0be2a70-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-26607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/695e432aa0b80e914efae12cd0be2a70-360x270.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/695e432aa0b80e914efae12cd0be2a70-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/695e432aa0b80e914efae12cd0be2a70.jpg 628w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-26607'>\n\t\t\t\tWith Kawashima-sensei and Waseda group at NASSH 2023\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f9\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/184e1fbbe38c6fb97ef918a7cd7090a8-e1694495105101-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-26608\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-26608'>\n\t\t\t\tWith the legendary sport sociologist Prof. Jay Coakley at ISSA 2023 \n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/%e7%94%bb%e5%83%8f10\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6d58f877a83b152a3c3b13756107b189-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-26609\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-26609'>\n\t\t\t\tMy presentation at NASSH 2023\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Staying at the St. George campus was a marvelous experience in terms of studying, socializing and playing. The university provides students with leading facilities and support, including more than 30 libraries on campus equipped with enormous collections and cutting-edge technologies, in which students can find spaces to study and access a variety of academic resources, not limited to only books and productivity software. Fitness and athletics are also a major part of campus life here, which is well manifested by the three major fitness facilities (Athletic Centre, Goldring Centre for High Performance Sport, Hart House Fitness Centre) that offer diverse and inclusive opportunities for drop-in sports and exercises, intra-mural competitions, and inter-collegiate varsity games at the elite level. The KPE would also organize monthly recreational activities, not least the hikes series partnered with Let\u2019s Hike T. O. which are open to UofT students, mainly targeting newcomers, people of colour and young adults.

Life in Toronto<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sited by the shore of Lake Ontario, Toronto is the largest and most populated city in Canada, well-known for its cultural and ethnic diversity, artistic and urban landscapes, as well as natural sceneries. Next to the St. George Campus is the Royal Ontario Museum famous for its abundant collections and bold exterior design resembling a crystal. For daily groceries and decent Asian and Caribbean food, the Kensington Market and Chinatown are just minutes away by walking from the west side of the campus. The entertainment district is also nearby where I went often for sightseeing, shopping and events. Moreover, as a huge sports fan, I seized the convenience of living in downtown Toronto to go to several games, in particular the home game of Toronto Blue Jays against Los Angeles Angels, which was sold out because of Shohei Ohtani\u2019s massive popularity. I also enjoyed visiting tourist attractions to catch great views and fresh air; Ontario Place, Toronto Islands and Niagara Falls are among my favourite destinations.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style

To conclude<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To conclude, my study abroad experience at UofT was enjoyable, eye-opening and fruitful. Despite the initial unfamiliarity and inconvenience, I settled in well and gained more knowledge, networks and know-how than I expected. I felt very privileged to have this invaluable experience of living and studying at a top university in a wonderful metropolitan city full of scholastic, historical, cultural and sporting distinctions. I would like to express genuine gratitude to my home supervisor at Waseda University, Professor Kawashima Kohei, and my host supervisor at University of Toronto, Professor Simon Darnell, for backing me up throughout. Meanwhile, this would not be possible without the continued support of the Graduate School of Sport Sciences at Waseda University, the Tokorozawa\/Higashi-Fushimi offices, and the TGU team.\u00a0 Lastly, I believe this study abroad program has enabled me to be a more capable and versatile scholar, especially in cross-cultural contexts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u30b9\u30dd\u30fc\u30c4\u79d1\u5b66\u7814\u7a76\u79d1\u30fb\u535a\u58eb\u8ab2\u7a0b\u306e\u30ea\u30fc\u30e6\u30fc\u3055\u3093\u304c\u30012023\u5e745\u6708\u304b\u30892023\u5e748\u6708\u307e\u3067\u30ab\u30ca\u30c0\u30fb\u30c8\u30ed\u30f3\u30c8\u5927\u5b66\u306b\u7559\u5b66\u3092\u3057\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u3053\u306e\u30d7\u30ed\u30b0\u30e9\u30e0\u306f\u3001\u30b9\u30fc\u30d1\u30fc\u30b0\u30ed\u30fc\u30d0\u30eb\u5927\u5b66\u5275\u6210\u652f\u63f4\u4e8b\u696d\u306b\u3088\u308b\u652f\u63f4\u3092\u53d7\u3051\u3066\u5b9f\u65bd\u3055\u308c\u305f\u3082\u306e\u3067\u3001\u73fe\u5730\u3067\u306f\u30ea\u30fc [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":26603,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[110,102],"class_list":["post-26622","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-through-2023","tag-report","tag-hs"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26622","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26622"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26622\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28004,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26622\/revisions\/28004"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26603"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26622"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26622"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
