The University of Tokyo's Faculty of Science has designated Homecoming Day as a "Family Day," during which alumni and alumnae give lectures that are open to the whole family.
The lectures are designed to be accessible to children in the upper grades of elementary school. We hope this will be an opportunity for children with a curious mind to experience the world of science.
