Videos from Waseda students around the world

The Waseda Vision 150 strategic plan lays out the University’s development goals intended to be met by 2032, Waseda’s 150th anniversary. The plan sets high numerical goals, such as having all its students study abroad.

To encourage this, some Waseda students studying abroad have volunteered to record their daily life overseas with their smartphones, so that they can share what their experience has been like. Known as the Student Study Abroad Report, these video series began in 2016, featuring universities such as Jean Moulin University Lyon III and Leiden University. They act as visual resources to show the variety of programs available at the University.

The following video (English subtitles available) was made by a Waseda student who did her student exchange at the University of Sheffield, and it is the first of the series in 2018.

Hopefully, these videos will give a more realistic insight into what studying abroad is actually like and inspire all students to have the experience of their lifetime.
