Mi-Room（エムアイルーム） Multilingual Immersion Room

Use foreign languages for cross-cultural experiences!

Mi-Room is a global communication space where you can experience different cultures and international exchanges that you cannot get in everyday life.
There are two types of rooms, one located on campus (face-to-face) and the other accessible as a virtual space (online). Not only can you improve your language skills but also cultivate an international mindset.
Why not keep Mi-Room as a part of your academic life?
It is a place that you can enjoy international communications while on campus or at home.

Virtual Mi-Room

Virtual Mi-Room is a virtual space where Kansai University students and students of partner universities can freely communicate online. You can enjoy free conversations in different languages.

(1) Join our regular event "intermittent Study Abroad"

We have set up a conversation space where you can speak not only in Japanese and English but also in various other languages. You can interact with international students in Japanese or ask native students to teach you the language you are studying.

(2) Participate in online events!

Experience cross-cultural exchange from home by participating in events. In 2022, we've had events with participants joined from more than 10 countries. Make friends through the wide range of connections that only online can offer.

(3) Use it as a platform to connect with friends you have met while studying abroad!

Want to stay in touch with friends from studying abroad after you return to your home country? Virtual Mi-Room can be very useful in such a case. You can communicate face to face with friends even if you are far away.
