In-person sessions

Update: August 3, 2021

A state of emergency for the COVID-19 pandemic has been issued by the government for Osaka Prefecture.

In response, the Schools of Foreign Studies, Science, and Dentistry will change their in-person events during Open Campus as noted below.

School of Foreign Studies

In-person events will be held as scheduled.

Considering Open Campus to be an important educational activity for high school students and other prospective students in deciding their future, the School of Foreign Affairs will be holding its in-person events as planned with proper measures in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19 based on the advice of experts.

We ask that you also practice proper prevention methods when attending these in-person events.

If you are not feeling well, please refrain from attending these events.

School of Science

The mock lecture scheduled for Wednesday, August 18 will now be held online.

Considering the risk of holding a mock lecture in a confined space during rapid spread of COVID-19, the School of Science has decided to hold its mock lecture, which was originally scheduled to be held on the Toyonaka Campus on Wednesday, August 18, online.

We apologize to those of you who had been looking forward to attending this mock lecture in person, and we humbly request your understanding regarding this decision.

School of Dentistry

The mock hands-on training session using dental plastic kits will be cancelled and only online individual counseling sessions with faculty members will be held.

Considering the risk of holding hands-on training using dental plastic kits, including teeth drilling and fillings on mannequins under instructions from an instructor in close proximity, during rapid spread of COVID-19, the School of Dentistry has decided to cancel the mock training scheduled on Wednesdays, August 11 and 18.

We apologize to those of you who had been looking forward to attending this mock training session, and we ask for your understanding regarding this decision.

The online consultation sessions with faculty members will be held as scheduled. Those interested are asked to register in advance.
