○ Participation in“Study in Japan”Fair (Bangkok)
TMU participated in a “Study in Japan” fair hosted by JASSO in Bangkok to field questions and give information and advice to high school students, university students and educators in Thailand. Thank you to all those who came over to our exhibit booth.
We never miss the opportunity to take part in the fair in Bangkok, which takes place every year. This year, we had reliable two alumni students who studied in a TMU’s graduate school. On the day, we fielded various kinds of questions and gave many pieces of advice about our university from A to Z. We are sure that Thai prospective students could get a clear picture of what their campus life at TMU would be like, after hearing campus episodes and other experiences that only alumni could tell.

Venue：Bangkok Convention Centre at CentralWorld
Visitors to our booth: over 60
○ Participation in JAPAN EXPO in Thailand
We took part in JAPAN EXPO in September 1~3, 2017 presenting TMU at the “Study in Japan” corner.
We were pleased to receive many visitors over the three days, many thanks to them.
Not only did the venue have the Study in Japan corner but also other corners featuring Japanese food, animation, games, tourism, employment in Japan, and drawing nearly 100 thousand visitors. It was a great success -- actually TMU’s brochures, catalogs and other informative materials were taken away by visitors like hot cakes. We are sure that we took the advantage of that opportunity to make good publicity on TMU to more people.
