To better expose Japan to global perspectives and work culture, a group of students from Keio and Stanford universities participating in an two-week exchange program said more Japanese students need to gain work experience abroad.

The comment came on the final day on Saturday at the annual culture exchange program, launched in 2012, dubbed Stanford Keio International Program (SKIP), where students gave presentations at the Japanese university in Tokyo's Minato Ward.

This year, 18 students from Stanford University joined 19 from Keio University, who worked in groups, to study the politics, economy and culture of Japan and promote understanding among the students from both countries.
