[This program is self-funded]
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The aim of this program is to invite university students from outside of Japan and create a stimulating learning environment for promoting globalization and diversity.
The program consists of 3 courses: “Japanese Business and Economy”, “Media and contemporary issues in Japan”, and “Japanese Language” (Beginner level). Among those courses, students take a minimum of two and a maximum of three. Each course consists of fifteen 90-minute sessions, and participants learn about these aspects of Japan comprehensively and intensively in 4 weeks. To further enhance the effectiveness of Japanese language acquisition, students will have opportunities to practice their language skills with native Japanese students of Sophia University with our “Language Exchange Program”.
Other than class lectures, participants will go on excursions like a factory tour and a media studio tour. This program is designed in such a way that the participants will be able to learn about and experience Japan both inside and outside classes.
