On December 13, VMU signed the exchange agreement and Memorandum of Understanding with Akita International University (AIU) in Japan. Both institutions have already started discussions about possibilities of academic and student exchange, financial support and scholarships, collaboration in joint research and other projects.
AIU was founded in 2004. Unique in Japan for offering an International Liberal Arts education entirely in English, it is on the cutting edge of Japanese higher education. AIU is a small (800 students), but very international university. It has 122 partners in 37 countries with around 300 exchange students per year.
