Halo… Perkenalkan saya Anisya Turrodiyah, alumni S1 Ilmu Tanah angkatan 2016. Melalui tulisan ini saya ingin berbagi pengalaman saya ketika mengikuti Program Pertukaran Pelajar di Yamagata University, Jepang pada tahun 2019-2020. Yamagata University terletak di Kota Tsuruoka, Prefektur Yamagata, Jepang.

Perjalanan saya mengikuti pertukaran pelajar dimulai dari ketertarikan saya ketika membaca pengumuman program pertukaran pelajar di Universitas Yamagata, Jepang pada tahun 2019 dengan beasiswa JASSO (Japan Student Services Organization). Saya berpikir bahwa memiliki pengalaman baru untuk studi dan penelitian di luar negeri khususnya di Jepang akan menjadi pengalaman yang sangat berharga bagi saya. Saya juga tertarik pada salah satu topik penelitian yang ditawarkan untuk menjadi topik riset/penelitian skripsi. Akhirnya, saya meyakinkan diri mengambil kesempatan untuk mendaftar program pertukaran pelajar selama satu tahun di Yamagata University dan dinyatakan diterima setelah melalui proses seleksi. read more
