The office has been established in the Japanese dean’s office and not only to carry out support to overseas students from both countries, but we are planning to hold introduction to Japan events. In Korea where it is said that there are many people learning Japanese, we will conduct activities that go further afield than just Japanese language and culture.

*At this University, TUFS Super Global University initiative “Through the strengthening of influential voice from Japan to the world” in order to continue “University Global support” From this point on for 10 years we have established “Global Japan Office” which will be the base for “Japanese research and Japanese education” in major overseas partner Universities.
