everything you need to know about Japan, the study abroad destination
Why Study in Japan?
Japan is the right place to be if you’re looking for more than just an overseas education. A country in Asia where tradition meets modernization, you will experience the complex and intriguing culture besides learning a new language.
The Land of the Rising Sun is known for high educational standards: high school students are ranked first in the world for math and second for scientific literacy. Besides, there are more than 700 universities to choose from with 10 of them ranked in the Top 200 in the world!
Part of what makes studying in Japan so tempting is the affordable tuition fees and generous scholarships! Compared to spending $10,000 or more per year in the US, Japanese public universities only cost about $5,500 a year. Scholarships and tuition fee waivers are also largely available to international students, so you don’t have to worry about finances while you study in Japan!
Employment While studying in Japan, Study destination
To work in Japan while studying, you can request a Work Permit from the local Immigration Office as your Student Visa does not give you a work authorization.
Do keep in mind that you cannot work for more than 28 hours a week; and working in bars, clubs, adult stores, adult hotels, and massage parlors are strictly prohibited. Other than that, you’re all set to work while studying in Japan!
Employment After studying in Japan
You can convert your Student Visa to a Work Visa once you graduate if you already have a work contract in Japan. This is for graduates who wish to remain in Japan for job opportunities. There is a strong job market for international graduates as many major Japanese companies are frequently looking for foreigners who have studied in Japanese universities.
Even if you are looking for career opportunities outside of Japan, you will notice that employers appreciate the skills that you have obtained from your overseas experience. Furthermore, your Japanese language skills will be a plus point in a multinational company where you get to work in a diversified environment!
