To provide support for master’s students who seek employment in private industries, government offices, etc., the Career Support Office of the Institute for Education and Student Services shares information by sending it to such students’ addresses of their Okayama University Gmail, whose account is provided by the university. For more information, please check Okayama University’s website page related to career support.
In addition, the Career Support Office holds job-hunting guidance sessions and company research seminars for master’s students (on the Shikata Campus) on a regular basis.
