Division of Global Initiatives at Shibaura Institute of Technology has launched a new Virtual Global Learning Commons (V-GLC) which is a daily online event for both International and Japanese students to socialize and share about their cultures and experiences.
To prevent the spread of COVID-19 infections, international on-campus gathering and studying abroad are restricted. However, we are now moving forward with this V-GLC, offering students to practice foreign languages, ask questions about overseas experiences, and share their cultures. Each hour, the GLC student staffs with diverse backgrounds are waiting for you!
