Herbal Medicine in Ibaraki

Japan Study students join their undergraduate counterparts from Waseda University’s College of Engineering in an internship experience at a Chinese Herbal Medicine company in Ibaraki Prefecture (north of Tokyo).  Students stay in the company dormitory and work together as they learn about the herbal medicine industry and prepare a presentation for executives at the company.  Those Japan Study students with a background in mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and physics will find this internship very interesting.
