On Saturday, January 21, IG course students conducted fieldwork for the purpose of on-site investigation in the "Uji Exploration Project" that they are working on in the core exploration. Each class was divided into groups to discover the attractions of the business sites they are in charge of, furthermore, discovering issues from them and discussing solutions. On this day, each class had the opportunity to further deepen their discussions by listening to their seniors on campus and visiting Uji and its suburbs. The visit to the actual site and the talks provided an opportunity to gain new insights.
