This program is part of the &#8220;CAMPUS Asia Program,&#8221; which aims to cultivate globally active infrastructure professionals.  Participating students traveled from Korea to China and then to Japan, engaging in programs at each university to deepen their understanding of each country&#8217;s infrastructure conditions and cultural differences.  The program was delivered in a hybrid format, combining \u2460 online lectures (7\/12-8\/2) and \u2461 on-site programs at each university (8\/9-26).  This year, a total of 38 students from four universities participated: NU (14), SKKU (11), SDU (11), and NUOL (2).  <br><br>\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-01.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1902\" height=\"871\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-621\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-622\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"721\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-623\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-634\" \/><br><br>\r\n\r\nPrograms at each university included special lectures, local language lesson, cultural experiences, city tour, and infrastructure site visits. At Nagasaki University, participants took a one-night trip to Isahaya, Sasebo, and Hirado to observe infrastructure construction sites such as dam, expressway viaduct, and tunnel.  An exchange session with CAMPUS Asia alumni was also held.  On the final day of the program, a presentation session was held where participants presented the outcomes of their group work and shared their experiences gained through the study abroad program and student exchanges. <br><br>\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-625\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-626\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-627\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-08.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1477\" height=\"1108\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-628\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-09.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1477\" height=\"1108\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613\" \/><br><br>\r\n\r\nFurthermore, Nagasaki University sent two students each to Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore and National University of Laos (NUOL). In Singapore, in addition to visiting NTU, the students participated in a three-day internship program at the Japanese-affiliated company Penta-Ocean Construction Co., Ltd., where they had the opportunity to observe infrastructure construction sites. This firsthand experience overseas during the internship was a rare and valuable opportunity that could influence their future career choices. <br><br>\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1108\" height=\"1477\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-614\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1477\" height=\"1108\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-615\" \/>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus-asia.eng.nagasaki-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/250930-H-12.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1477\" height=\"1108\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-616\" \/><br><br>\r\n\r\nIn Laos, NUOL organized a special program for two NU and one SKKU students, which included: \u2460 presentations by students from each university, \u2461 infrastructure lectures, \u2462 construction site visit, and \u2463 city tour.
