2025年12月16日（火）、国際コミュニケーション学科主催の英語スピーチコンテストを開催いたしました。当日は、厳正な選考を経て選ばれた4名の学生が本選に出場し、国際コミュニケーションを学ぶ中で得た経験や考えを、自身の言葉で力強く発表しました。
本コンテストは、学生が英語で自らの伝えたいメッセージや主張を発信し、その内容や表現力を競い合うことを目的として実施されています。今年度は「共に生き、共に輝く未来へ」をテーマに、多様な視点から人と人とのつながりやコミュニケーションの重要性が語られました。

＜教員からの感想＞
Mark D. Sheehan（英語スピーチコンテスト担当教員）
This year’s English Speech Contest clearly reflected the theme of building a future where we live and shine together. Each speaker shared a thoughtful message grounded in personal experience, demonstrating not only strong English skills but also a deep awareness of international communication. Through their speeches, the students reminded us of the importance of connection, empathy, and active engagement with the world around us. I was impressed by their dedication, growth, and willingness to express their ideas with confidence, and I hope this experience will encourage them to continue developing their voices as global communicators.
