Step 2-3. International Project-Based Learning (iPBL) Program
OIT provides training courses with hands-on activities called "Project Based Learning (PBL)" for students of 2nd year and above. As its international version, International PBL (iPBL) programs are conducted with our overseas partnership institutions.
In each iPBL program, students from both universities are grouped together and instructed to communicate in English. Each team completes the same project, such as hardware/software development or system design, which can promote students' practical engineering skills.
OIT believes that such interaction allows students to gain experience in a diverse and professional environment reflecting our globalizing world.
