What is the Hitotsubashi University Global Education Program (HGP)?
HGP offers interdisciplinary courses in English, designed for both international and Japanese students. Students can choose from a variety of courses in the Social Sciences. The program provides in-depth learning opportunities in the fields of Business, Economics, Law, Sociology, IT and others. The program also includes courses specifically designed for exchange students studying one or two semesters ranging from Japanese Language, Japanese Affairs, and Seminars (courses with a limited number of students) all conducted in English.
International Learning Community
At Hitotsubashi University, international students with an advanced level of Japanese are encouraged to take courses conducted in Japanese, and we also suggest students with a high English proficiency to take part in the HGP and become a part of this international learning community. Our academic staff members are from around the world, and our international students come from over 50 different countries and regions.
Japanese for Beginners
In addition to our advanced-level Japanese language courses, the program
introduces credited courses in Japanese language starting at an introductory
level. The Japanese Language courses are highly acclaimed, providing
an exciting and effective learning experience.
Beyond Cultural Exchange
With HGP, the course selections are not limited to Japanese language and culture-related courses. There are academic subjects available in English, so you can pursue studies of subjects related to your major. HGP also has a number of lecturers with professional experience in various industries, connecting our classrooms to the real world.
Seminars for International Students
Designed specifically for newcomers, Hitotsubashi University offers seminars taught in English: Social Science Seminar and Explore Japan Seminar. Social Science Seminar helps students to learn how to maximize their study abroad experiences at Hitotsubashi, while Explore Japan Seminar offers experiential-based immersion in various aspects of Japanese culture. Both of these seminars are designed to foster learning community through student interactions in small groups that allows for a more intimate learning experience and better interaction with the professor.
Academic Skills in English
For students who are non-native English speakers, the program offers an opportunity to advance your ability with courses focused on skills needed in an academic setting. Academic Writing 1 & 2, Academic Presentation 1 & 2 and Academic English (TOEFL Preparation) are all designed to prepare students for studies in an English-speaking environment.
