Each summer, Florida State University scholars extend their education far beyond the classroom by transcending borders, welcoming new cultures, and engaging in hands-on activities worldwide.

From the historic avenues of London to the sun-drenched squares of Valencia and Seville, FSU students utilized their summer to acquire international experiences across Europe, Asia, and further.

So, where across the globe did the Seminoles spend their summer?

Japan

Sara Smith, a senior pursuing studies in civil engineering and Japanese language/culture, along with Ruth Castro, a senior majoring in Japanese language/culture, engaged in a summer program at Waseda University in Shinjuku, Japan, through FSU’s Global Exchanges.

Established in 1882 in the center of Tokyo, Waseda University is acknowledged as one of the most globalized universities in Japan. Participants in the Waseda Summer Program select two from 15 offered courses, including literature, art, business, culture, economics, history, politics, and sociology within the context of Japan and the Asia-Pacific, earning a total of 4 credits. Classes are conducted in English.
