  • Names of counterpart universities in Japan: University of Tsukuba, Osaka University, Tokyo University of Science, Kyoto University, Hokkaido University, Keio University, Nagoya University
  • The specific number of Japanese students dispatched to the University of Benin and students dispatched to Japan from the University of Benin may not be readily available in public records or online databases. Universities often compile statistics on international exchanges, but they may not always publish detailed numbers, especially for individual years or specific programs.
    For accurate statistics regarding student exchanges during these years, including any collaboration with Japanese counterpart universities, it is best to contact the International Relations Office at the University of Benin directly.
  • Generally, online travel or virtual exchange programs were not as widely tracked or documented by universities before the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a significant shift toward online formats in 2020.Before the COVID-19 pandemic, most universities did not have formalized online travel programs, and the concept of “online travel” was not commonly tracked as it is now.
  • Due to the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on international travel and exchanges, many universities, including the University of Benin, likely faced restrictions and cancellations for student exchanges during 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic prompted many universities, including the University of Benin, to shift to online formats for international collaboration and learning, but exact statistics regarding participation in online travel may not be documented in a publicly accessible format.
  • The ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact international exchanges, which likely resulted in a reduced number of students able to travel in 2021.The transition to virtual formats was common during this time due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions, but detailed statistics on participation can be hard to find.
  • The ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic has led many universities to reassess and possibly resume international exchanges, but exact statistics can be challenging to find. As universities transitioned back to more in-person activities while still incorporating online elements, detailed statistics regarding virtual participation can be challenging to obtain.
