高校卒業後の進路を考えた際、日米大学併願はどれほど現実的なのか？ 卒業後すぐに渡米すべきか、それとも日本の大学に入学してから１年留学した方がよいのか？ 留学後のキャリアとして、現在労働市場はどのような動きをしているか？ キャリアのためには、（短期であっても）留学をした方がよいのか、それともあきらめるべきか？

いずれも複雑に要因が絡み合っており、容易には答えの出ない問いですが、日米大学併願やキャリアについての専門家を招いて実情を検証し、実態の側面に迫る機会を設けたいと思います。また、実際に留学を終えた経験者も招いて、当事者からの視点も提供する予定です。

高校進路相談・国際交流ご担当の先生方、高校生の保護者の方々、大学の留学担当者、教育関係者など、多くの皆さまのご参加をお待ちしております。
