Description

The School of Agricultural Sciences, Nagoya University, started an overseas training program as an elective-required course in 2008. At present, it has been reorganized and conducted as a joint student-training program among three countries: Thailand, Cambodia, and Japan. The undergraduate students (largely third year students) studying agriculture from Kasetsart University in Thailand, Royal University of Agriculture in Cambodia, and Nagoya University join the program. The program’s objective is to develop individuals with an international viewpoint and mindset, who can contribute to society through knowledge and training in agricultural sciences. The program’s purpose is to understand the agriculture of countries with different cultures and nature. The students form groups with their counterparts from each university to experience the reality of agricultural production in the rural areas of the three participating countries. They perform several projects on rice production, animal production, food processing, and water management, and present the results of their projects. The present study describes several topics for improving and continuing the program.
