Expanding Our International Roots

As of May, 2005 Osaka University has signed exchange agreements with 43 universities and 183 faculties, including mutual tuition waiver agreements. The impact of this growing network can be seen on Osaka University's campuses, where last year more than one thousand students from 71 nations and regions studied.

Osaka University offers exchange opportunities for undergraduate, graduate and doctorate students as well as academic interns, scholars, researchers, visiting professors and other faculty. These programs allow both Japanese and foreign students to gain practical experience, participate in different cultures and expand their international perspective.
