Ehime University held an online exchange program with students of three partner universities: Orenburg State University (Russia), Gorontalo State University (Indonesia) and Sacramento State University (U.S).

This was followed by students from the faculty of Science and the faculty of Law and Letters, who presented about student life and poetic places in Ehime.
