Feature 3) All first-year students study together in the dormitory
In the first year, all students live in the dormitory, where they work with their peers to build a foundation for developing basic skills and curiosity through reflection and dialogue. Guests such as entrepreneurs and business people active in society are invited to the dormitories to provide learning and stimulation for students.
