Message to Potential Candidates to Ogawa Seminar:

I am YAN Man, from China. I have been in Japan for nearly 5 years. When I worked, I heard about Professor Ogawa’s seminar and immediately believed I should try to join it even though I had little knowledge about education eoconomics.
Ogawa-sensei is professional, resourceful and well-connected. He is kind, considerate, and supportive supervisor. His sense of humor makes him easy to talk to. Combining with his open-mindedness and confidence they make him a role model of mine.
If you expect some decent academic outcomes or if you are seeking potential working opportunities in International Cooperation, you should definitely give your best try to join Ogawa Zemi. It might not be easy but it surely is going to be great and meaningful.
