| Japanese night 2010 |
We are the students in the master´s program of intercultural communication at the University of Jyväskylä in Finland.
We created InCoMaS in order to share our passion for intercultural communication and to get to know other students, people working in the field and anyone sharing the same interest for culture!
Why InCoMaS?
InCoMaS is the acronym which stands for Intercultural communication Master student
