Junior Year Program in English - Student Exchange Programs

The main purpose of Junior Year Program in English (JYPE) is to offer an opportunity for you to take science, engineering, and education courses at Tohoku University, without having to attain the Japanese language proficiency that would be necessary to take the same courses in Japanese. All lectures are given in English and course credit will be given by the standards for the equivalent courses offered in Japanese.

We recommend that you take two semesters (one-year), because some classes are designed for a whole year. However, a few students can be admitted for a single semester(6 months).

How do I apply?
For overseas student at one of Tohoku University’s partner universities, you can contact your Exchange Program Coordinator for information about applying to Tohoku University as an exchange student.
The Coordinator will be able to give you information about our selection criteria and will be available to assist you through the application and selection processes.

Your application must be submitted through the Exchange Program Coordinator at your home institution and you cannot make apply directly Tohoku University.

Requirements
To be considered for the Student Exchange program for one semester or one year of study at Tohoku University, you must:
• be an undergraduate or postgraduate student at your home university after completing the exchange program.
• have completed at least one year of study towards a degree at a recognized institution in your home country and be continuing towards the degree of your home institution.
• have a good grade average.
• have financial support of 80,000 yen per month during your stay in Japan.

Note: Every applicant for exchange programs can apply for the scholarship awarded by the Japanese Student Services Organization. But, the scholarship is highly competitive.

Dateline: March 10, 2008

    saya kebetulan keterima magang di Salah satu biro arsitek di Barcelona, Paris dan Tokyo, tetapi saya nggak digaji..(yg di Paris dibayar hanya 400euro)
    Padahal disana mesti mengeluarkan biaya untuk living cost seperti room, transport, dan makan.
    Setidaknya saya ada bantuan untuk tempat tinggal. Soalnya pasti mahal sekali untuk biaya menyewa kamar.
    Ada scholarship nggak untuk masalah seperti ini? Atau bantuan lain sejenis?
    Atau ada yang punya kenalan yang bisa “menampung” saya selama disana?

    Terima Kasih
