What did you study at the University of Tsukuba?
At the University of Tsukuba, the majority of the subjects I study are related to economics. These include comparative economics, contemporary issues in developing countries, the history of economic thought, and monetary economics. Additionally, I take part in other courses such as Trans-ASEAN Global Agenda Debate, Global Internship, and Japanese Culture. These subjects have been incredibly interesting as they have helped me enhance my knowledge not only of the global economy but also provided insights into Japan's economy. Moreover, I have had a great experience exchanging thoughts with both Japanese and international students.
