　On Wednesday, February 4, 2026, a completion ceremony was held at our university for seven exchange students: two from Anhui Sanlian University, China; one from Xiamen University of Technology, China; two from Burapha University, Thailand; and two from Konkuk University, Korea.

　At the ceremony, each exchange student first gave a presentation reflecting on their study-abroad experience in Japan, sharing what they had learned and how they had grown during their time here. As they spoke about their experiences in their own words, it was evident that each student had enjoyed a fulfilling and rewarding stay in Japan. Following the presentations, Vice President Ueno presented the certificates of completion.

　As the representative of the exchange students, Mr. Ta Koujun (China) delivered a message of appreciation, stating:

“At the university, I was able to learn deeply about the Japanese language and Japanese culture. I also met many wonderful people, and thanks to everyone, I was able to spend each day joyfully and meaningfully. I am sincerely grateful to the faculty members and my friends. My study-abroad experience in Japan has become an irreplaceable experience for me. After returning to my home country, I would like to make use of what I learned at Nishikyushu University in the future.”

　Congratulations to all the exchange students on the successful completion of your program​
　We sincerely hope that your experiences at Nishikyushu University will serve as a great source of strength as you move forward in your future endeavors.Please continue to pursue your dreams and do your best in all that lies ahead.
