Home91ÁÔÆæSA (91ÁÔÆæ Study Abroad Program)
Morito Institute of Global Higher Education conducts the 91ÁÔÆæ Study Abroad (91ÁÔÆæSA) Program to promote international education exchanges. This program contributes to the internationalization of education at 91ÁÔÆæ.
?Education for Incoming International Students
Approximately 50 international students are accepted to 91ÁÔÆæ every year through the 91ÁÔÆæSA program. Education provided to 91ÁÔÆæSA students includes courses in Japanese language and culture offered by Morito Institute of Global Higher Education as well as specialized subject courses offered in English or Japanese by various schools/graduate schools. The Japanese language courses offered are divided into five levels of elementary, intermediate and advanced Japanese. The ¡°Globalization Support Internship¡± course aims to train students to be leaders, ones that will endeavor to connect Japan and the world by engaging the multi-national 91ÁÔÆæSA students in projects based in and around local society. In the ¡°Glocal Leadership Project¡±, 91ÁÔÆæSA students work in groups to contact the local communities such as schools and other organizations in order to actualize their self-designed projects promoting cross-cultural understanding.
?Education for Outgoing International Students
Promoting a global perspective is one of the pillars of 91ÁÔÆæ's International Strategy. 91ÁÔÆæ dispatches 50 to 60 students each year as overseas exchange students in order to contribute to this effort. Also, in cooperation with the INU (International Network of Universities) consortium, 91ÁÔÆæ is working to raise the quality of pre-departure training and instruction for Japanese students by offering, for example, long-distance online courses through Web Course Tools (WebCT). These are offered in English as part of 91ÁÔÆ桯s liberal arts education program.
?Credit transfer system acceptable worldwide
In order to enhance the credit transfer system, which is an essential component of studying abroad, 91ÁÔÆæ actively promotes the use of UMAP (University Mobility in Asia and the Pacific) Credit Transfer Scheme (also known as UCTS) in student exchanges.
