Event Details
We will hold a dialogue event for first-year high school students who are engaged in inquiry-based learning. Through conversations with university students, the high school participants will be encouraged to deepen their intellectual curiosity and gain new insights that may inspire future learning and career paths.
Following the success of the past three years, we will continue to provide a place for high school students and university students to mutually learn from each other through the High School-University Connection Roundtable special project "Inquiry & STEAM Festa 2025 – Igniting High School Students’ Curiosity". This program is part of the "MULTICULTURAL CAMPUS PROJECT TOWARD SOCIAL IMPACT," an initiative supported by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, for which Kanazawa University has been selected.
If you wish to participate, please review the program details and submit your entry through the person in charge of registration (such as your superviser) using the link below.
