On 20 May, 2026, the Committee for International Affairs met with representatives from University of Tokyo’s new College of Design to share respective programs, and to explore potential areas for collaboration. While the College of Design will officially accept students in September 2027, it was an excellent opportunity to promote our faculty and international program, during their planning stages. Thanks to SPD Director, Assist. Prof. Dr. Watchara Pechdin, for his presentation of SPD and for his and other colleagues’ valuable contributions during this initial meeting.
