The open seminar will be held as follows:

Our speakers will discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic is changing international student experience and how the pandemic is changing the global engagement among leading universities. The symposium is organised in the framework of the Strategic Partnership between Tohoku University and University College London (UCL). It represents the first opportunity to showcase ongoing joint research on higher education. Particularly, the symposium addresses themes related to leadership, crisis management and global engagement during the Covid 19 pandemic. The first part will focus on the experiences of students in UK, Europe and Japan; the second part will elaborate on the long-term implications of Covid 19 for the governance of universities.
