[Held on Monday, May 29] Seminar for Students Considering Their Future Life Plans: "My Future Self 3" (In-person, pre-registration required, partially online)

2023/05/12

We are holding a seminar for students to think about their future life plans, "My Future Self 3."

This will be the third installment of the "My Future Self" seminar series.

In this series, we aim to provide students with an opportunity to envision their life plans by listening to the real-life experiences of alumni (*) working in different industries. The seminar will address how to face the various anxieties and concerns about the future that students may encounter in this modern era of diverse work and life styles.

(*) In this seminar, we affectionately refer to our speakers as "Catalysts" rather than lecturers, hoping to foster a more relaxed and personal connection.

In this third session, three alumni with diverse lifestyles and careers will talk about their lives from various perspectives. They will focus on the life choices they have considered that have led them to where they are today, their job satisfaction, work-life balance, and what they continue to learn. They will also share valuable stories, including career changes to different fields. We hope this will be helpful for your own life planning.

(In Part 2, we will have group sessions where in-person participants can ask the Catalysts questions directly.)

Why not take this opportunity to imagine yourself in 5, 10, or 20 years, expand your future options, and think about the person you want to become—your "Future Self"?

If you wish to participate, please apply using the link below.

We look forward to receiving your application!
