🚌 Karatsu & Imari Bus Trip, April 24, 2026 🚌

Our students spent a wonderful day in Saga Prefecture as they visited two famous spots with different sides of the region’s history and culture.

🏯 Karatsu Castle 唐津城
The day began with Karatsu Castle, one of the city’s most well-known landmarks. With the castle our students learned about Karatsu's local history while enjoying beautiful views of the Genkai Sea, Nijinomatsubara, Matsuura Bridge, and the city of Karatsu.

🏺 Okawachiyama 大川内山, Imari
In the afternoon, students visited Okawachiyama, often named as the 'Village of Secret Kilns'. Surrounded by very tall mountains and known for its porcelain heritage, the village gave students a glimpse into Imari’s long tradition of craftsmanship.

The trip was a meaningful opportunity for students to spend time together outside the classroom, take photos, and experience the local beauty of Saga.

Kyushu University International Programs in Law looks forward to exploring more of Japan’s culture and history together with our students.

Students also engaged in legal discussions on archaeological cases and whether a restitution claim brought by a country is justified or not.

📚 Creative Workshop on Speculative Legal Designs
🎓 Freyja van den Boom, University of Antwerp
📅 March 5, 2026

How can the new digital technologies influence our life and perception of law in the next decades?

This was the question our master students, together with doctoral students and faculty members, explored in a group discussion yesterday. It is obvious that technology today tends to push the limits of humanity and the laws we have created, yet it is still unclear how exactly the law should coexist with the new inventions on the horizon.

The workshop and the discussions overall were very useful for our students, especially those writing on robotics, agentic artificial intelligence and other new technologies.
