About Exchange with SU Int'l Students

　At Shimane University, there are about 200 international students from roughly 22 countries. Because of the spread of COVID-19, there are SU students abroad who couldn't come to Japan. As such, the Center for International Exchanges and the Center for Foreign Language Education are making efforts to expand international exchange.
