- Students' English skills should be more improved.
- Students' English skills should be assessed objectively.
- Interaction between Japanese and international students should be encouraged through classes.
- The number of students joining mid/long-term overseas program should be increased.
- (other request) UoA's curriculum for each field is preferred to be accredited by a third-party institutions.
