The Hiroshima University Fair took place from December 19 to December 21, 2011, in three major cities of the Republic of Indonesia (Surabaja, Makassar and Jakarta) and the inaugural meetings for the Hiroshima University Indonesia Alumni Associations were held.



The local universities for each of the three cities where the Hiroshima University Fair was held, has an academic exchange agreement with HU. The purpose of these fairs was to introduce the system of intercollegiate academic exchange and promote overseas education at Hiroshima University. At each event, former HU students presented their experiences of studying in Hiroshima and the participants listened intently.



There were many alumni from Hiroshima University at each inaugural meeting for the Hiroshima University Indonesia Alumni Association. After Executive and Vice President Yamane spoke about the current situation at Hiroshima University, everybody sang the school anthem of HU. Afterward, there was a reception where graduates reestablished their friendships by talking about school days at Hiroshima University and their recent lives.



These fairs and the establishment of the Hiroshima University Indonesia Alumni Associations are expected to promote further academic and student exchange between HU and Indonesian universities.
