The 9th Cambrige-UTokyo Joint Symposium – Navigating the Future and Reflecting on the Past March 27, 2025

The University of Cambridge and the University of Tokyo enjoy a long-term, cross-disciplinary partnership. An annual joint symposium has been organised since 2015 to promote academic links and collaborations.

This year marks the ninth of our joint symposia. It is entitled “Navigating the Future and Reflecting on the Past” and we will focus on several topics that are of mutual interest to the two universities, and to share relevant research, promote links, and discuss collaboration opportunities.

The main session of the joint symposium will be held on March 27 at the Hongo campus, followed by the “UTokyo-Cambridge Voices” research session on March 28. Some sessions will be open for online participation.
