Japan » Introduction

3 Great Programs...
Welcome to Japan!

From the bustling metropolis of Tokyo in the East, to the mountainous and picturesque region of Akita in the North, OUS offers 3 distinct programs for students to explore Japan.  There are two offerings in Tokyo, Waseda University and Aoyama Gakuin University.  One of the most prestigious universities in Japan, Waseda offers students the chance to take intensive Japanese language classes, with courses taught in English in the School of International Liberal Studies.  Aoyama Gakuin offers students the chance to experience a traditional Japanese university, with intensive language courses, as well as the option to take traditional university courses taught in Japanese.  Our newest offering, Akita International University, is the only university to provide English language instruction for all of its Japanese and international students, and provides tracks in Global Business, Global Studies, and Japan Studies.  With three distinct options to choose from, there is something for everyone interested in Japan and Japanese culture!
