Eighteen students and two faculty members of the Mayborn School of Journalism at the University of North Texas (UNT), Denton, went to Japan in summer 2016. This faculty-led summer study-abroad program called “Mayborn in Japan” (MIJ) consisted of two sessions: (1) Mayborn in Tokyo, Japan, for one week to visit media organizations, PR agencies and an advertising museum; and (2) Mayborn in Fukuoka, Japan, for four weeks to study and practice international PR and journalism on the campus of Seinan Gakuin University. This video, created by Samantha Mitchell, summarizes MIJ participants’ learning experiences in Tokyo to explore Japanese JMC (journalism and mass communication) practices.
