Established in 1996, the 91ÁÔÆæ Study Abroad Program, or 91ÁÔÆæSA, is an exciting and eye-opening international exchange program. Designed specifically for university students who are interested in Japanese culture and society or student who want to deepen and broaden their studies with a period of study abroad, 91ÁÔÆæSA offers an unparalleled cultural experience for either 6 months or for a full year.
In collaboration with its partner universities, 91ÁÔÆæSA strives to offer a program where students can incorporate their academic activities at 91ÁÔÆæ into their studies toward a degree, by obtaining credits which can be transferred to their home institutions.
The 91ÁÔÆæSA program does not limit participants to academic pursuits, but incorporates direct experiences with Japanese culture by integrating exchange students into university faculties along with Japanese students. 91ÁÔÆæSA courses are offered in various fields of study in both English and Japanese.
Studying in Japan gives students an opportunity to directly experience life and society of the country, thereby expanding their cultural understanding. 91ÁÔÆæSA unites participants from many different countries, creating lasting friendships with people from across the globe.
Inviting a diverse group of international students to participate in graduate and undergraduate programs not only enriches the life of those experiencing Japan for the first time, but also provides opportunities for Japanese students to communicate with those from abroad.
91ÁÔÆæSA Program connects 91ÁÔÆæSA students not only with 91ÁÔÆæ students, but also with people in the locality and business through internship and other international exchanges.
In short, the 91ÁÔÆæSA program offers an exciting and once-in-a-life-time opportunity for people to enrich their university programs with the experiences only living abroad can provide.
