Recognized for Many Years of Success in Education for International Students<\/div>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

At Takushoku University, we applied successfully to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports,
Science and Technology to adopt a special framework for international students,
based on the \u201cAct on Promotion of Youth Study and Employment by Promoting Universities in
the Community and Creating Employment Opportunities for Youth \u201d in order to boost our international competitiveness in the field of educational research, and we were recognized in August of 2020. This special framework will allow a larger number of International students to enter the school by expanding the maximum number allowed in several departments.
That will include 36 students in the Department of Business Administration (Faculty of Commerce), 9 students in the Department of International Business (Faculty of Commerce), and
23 students in the Department of Economics (Faculty of Political Science and Economics).
Takushoku University is the first in Japan to create a special framework as an exception to the above Act, which caps the number of university students in Tokyo’s 23 wards . We are highly regarded for our system that has produced a long track record of strong results in international education, and also for our plans to continue accepting even more students in the years to come. We aim to produce excellent international workers to bolster the Japanese marketplace, and we feel this should be the trend in Japan going forward.<\/p>\r\n

Fostering Cultural Exchange with International and Japanese Students Studying Together<\/h2>\r\n

Many international students are enrolled on our Bunkyo campus, and these students study alongside Japanese students in classroom environments where they have the chance to exchange ideas and views, enabling cross-cultural communication. Also, the campus is located in Tokyo\u2019s Bunkyo Ward, which is a stone\u2019s throw from major areas in the city\u2014like Ikebukuro and Shinjuku\u2014that are vibrant, international areas where people of many nationalities gather, allowing international students opportunities for international exchange even off-campus. Our aim at Takushoku University is to provide a truly global environment to all students who choose to study abroad with us.<\/p>\r\n
