Open Campus

Today, an event called "Open Campus" was held at my university.

"Open Campus" is an event where universities, colleges, or vocational schools provide information and explanations about their facilities to people who are thinking about entering the school.

I heard some universities offer simulated lectures, laboratory tours, the experience of school cafeterias, stamp rallies, and free shuttle buses.

In the past, universities usually did not like to disclose their facilities of the campus, but most universities have held open campuses and disclose various information since the 2000s.

Note that the meaning of "open campus" in Japan seems to be different from that in English.

今日私の大学では「オープンキャンパス」と呼ばれるイベントが催されました。

「オープンキャンパス」は、大学や専門学校が、入学を検討している人に対して、施設の公開や説明などを行うイベントです。

模擬的な講義や、研究室見学ツアー、学食、スタンプラリー、無償送迎バスなどを提供する大学もあります。

かつて、大学はその構内を積極的に公開していませんでしたが、2000年代以降は多くの大学でオープンキャンパスが開催されるようになりました。
