\nThe Purpose of this project is to promote Russo-Japanese economic activities in such fields as trade and finance, tourism and transportation, primary industry, manufacturing and IT, medical translation, news services, and cultural interaction.\u00a0 The project will seek to do this by fostering Russian and Japanese business talent through support of intercultural and economic interaction between Russians and Japanese, with a focus on fostering language skills, knowledge of Russia and Japan (particularly related to their economies), as well as on negotiation skills.

- Short-term Exchange Program\u00a0<\/strong>
\nTUFS and its partner universities in Russia will support reciprocal exchange programs for 1st<\/sup> and 2nd<\/sup>-year undergraduate students majoring in Japan-related or Russia-related fields, and in so doing strengthen their respective education programs.<\/li>\n- Long-term exchange program<\/strong>
\nTUFS and its partner universities in Russia will support reciprocal exchange programs for 3rd<\/sup>-year undergraduate students majoring in Japan-related or Russia-related fields, and provide opportunities for said exchange students to engage in high-level study of Russian and Japanese economics, society, and culture.<\/li>\n- Internship program<\/strong>
\n\u00a0<\/strong>This project will also seek to provide participating students with opportunities to engage in internships. \u00a0As a part of the internship program, participants will have the opportunity to attend a course on job-hunting (Jugyo Taiken)<\/em>, which will operate as part of the general education program, and from which students can earn two credits.\u00a0 Students will then have the opportunity to participate in a number of programs made available to them by the TUFS Russo-Japanese Business Network, which was established with the support of TUFS alumni association branches, including the Moscow branch.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nBy combining short-term and long-term internships, it is hoped that TUFS will contribute to fulfilling the goals of Item 8 of the Russo-Japanese Cooperation Plan, which stipulates expansion of intercultural exchanges between the two countries on multiple levels, by fostering talent in the fields of trade and finance, tourism and transportation, primary industry, manufacturing and IT, medical translation and interpretation, and news services.
\nAdditionally, to better fulfill the aforementioned goals, TUFS has introduced a program outlining the specific criteria for success in the Russian program that students majoring in it should try to achieve.\u00a0 The program, termed RJI<\/a> (Studies on R<\/span>ussia, J<\/span>apan, and I<\/span>nternship) will serve to motivate students in the Russian program.
