What would you like to achieve through this program? ASCENT international exchange program

Max 200 words :: Word count 164 words
Deadline 26th Feb 2016

Since this program is an international program, I would look for new experiences from other international students which I think it would be very interesting and exciting. Moreover, as this program will be held in Japan, I would love learning the technology from Japan because Japanese technology especially computer technology is famous and high ranked. They can apply computer technology in everything such as home appliances, cars, medical field and more.

Culture and new friends are also my expectation. Nowadays, we are in globalization, learning about other culture and way of life are very important. Imagine how many impressions we receive if we do or perform things according to their culture correctly. And of course, having more friends is good. It means getting more connection from them which is a plus.

The knowledge and experiences, that I will have, should be useful to my lessons in university and to my life. Further than that, those maybe develop our country, I hope.

Thanks in advance for help
