On Friday, April 24, 2026, five faculty members from National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU), Taiwan, including Prof. Jyh-Tsung Lee, Dean of the College of Science, paid a courtesy visit to our Graduate School　of Science.

They were welcomed by Prof. Tadashi Kondo, Dean of the Graduate School of Science; Prof. Takashi Kubo, Vice Dean; Prof. Atsushi Takahashi, Vice Dean and Chair of the International Exchange Committee; and Lecturer Yuri Kamon, a member of the International Exchange Committee. During the meeting, the participants exchanged views on future collaboration and on a joint symposium scheduled to be held at the University of Osaka in October this year.

In the afternoon of the same day, a research presentation session was held, featuring presentations by two NSYSU faculty members and four students interested in the Double Degree Program (DDP). Faculty members from our Graduate School in related fields also attended, and the session provided a meaningful opportunity for academic exchange through lively questions and discussion. In addition, a laboratory tour was organized after the session, helping the visitors deepen their understanding of our research environment.

Building on the discussions during this visit, we will continue preparations for the successful joint symposium and further strengthen the cooperative relationship between the two universities.
