Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET) and the Embassy of Japan jointly organized a seminar title “Study in Japan Seminar 2018” at the university premises in CUET on Wednesday.
The seminar provided useful information such as: higher education in Japan; the Japanese government scholarship (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology; MEXT Scholarship); study and life in Japan, and its advantages.
