The Tohoku University Japanese Program (TUJP) - usually a popular exchange fortnight held every summer - is going online for the first time due to the COVID-19 pandemic this year.
The program has been lightly adjusted to provide participants with a dynamic Japanese language course, interactive cultural activities and a chance to learn alongside local Tohoku University students online.
