Dear Overseas Alumni of University of Tsukuba,

We hope this email finds you well!


The long summer vacation at the Tsukuba Campus is almost over. Students are coming back, and we will soon be welcoming new students for the autumn semester as well. We’re getting ready for the next term.


Do you happen to watch the Olympics and Paralympics in Paris? We're proud that some of our graduates won medals. Besides, many people, including our faculty members, supported the games as experts and staff.


We also had a historical moment: Our new branch campus in Malaysia has opened on September 1, welcoming 13 Malaysian and Japanese students.


This time, we will be distributing the third issue of the University of Tsukuba newsletter, which summarizes the notable events of this summer. Please check it out!
