International Exchange

We have interactions among foreign countries. From 2004, 19 of our members have visited Finland for 10 years in a row. In addition, we have collaborated institutes in France from 2014, Spain from 2015, Germany from 2016, Norway from 2017, Netherlands from 2018, Portugal from 2019 and 51 internship students have studied abroad for 16 years in a row. Internship students have much mature personality through the experiences. Finnish students also have visited and studied at our laboratory from 2005 to 2009, 2013 and 2016. Apart from international exchange activities, we also participate in international conferences and carry on researches in collaboration with foreign research institutes.
