Shinshu University Faculty of Arts is looking for a partner university in the UK to carry out the following two programmes. (Other programmes are negotiable, too)
- One-year study-abroad programme (several students from both universities each year)
Students will attend regular classes as well as language classes if needed, and will receive credits when conditions are met. Students will pay the tuition to their own university, which will cover the cost for the students visiting, which means they are exempt from the tuitions of the universities they are visiting. Cost of living is to be covered by each student. - Summer school programme (10-20 students each year)
Language / culture programme for about a month during the breaks.
University profile:
Shinshu University was established in 1949 as a national university, and has eight faculties including Arts, Education, Economics, Science, Medicine, Engineering, Agriculture, and Textile Science and Technology. There are about 2500 staff, and 12,000 students including 350 international students, and has a very welcoming atmosphere for international students.
It is located in approximately the middle of Japan, which is convenient for visiting many places in Japan. And surrounded by the Japan Alps, Shinshu attracts people with its beautiful natural sceneries. Shinshu is also very famous for its spas and the national treasure, Matsumoto Castle.
