Musashi University Semester/Year Abroad
Musashi University is a small private institution located in the quiet residential area of Tokyos Nerima ward. Musashi enrolls approximately 4,000 students in the faculties of Economics, Humanities, and Sociology. Musashi University developed the East Asian Studies Program specifically to address the needs of international students who wish to learn Japanese language while also perusing East Asian Studies courses instructed in English. The small class sizes, strong student supportive services, and a community-oriented university atmosphere make Musashi a place where students can connect with instructors, staff, Japanese students, and local culture. Please note this program commences Fall 2012.
National University Singapore Extension Semester/Year Abroad
The National University of Singapore (NUS) is Singapore’s premier university with distinctive strengths in education and research, and an entrepreneurial dimension. In 2010/11, Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) ranked NUS in the top 50 universities worldwide and 3rd among Asian universities. NUS Extension developed this program to meet the specific needs of visiting international students who are interested in intensive language learning, coupled with academic coursework specifically focused on Singapore and Southeast Asia. As a multilingual society Singapore is the ideal place for students to learn Mandarin. English and Mandarin are officially recognized languages of Singapore and are widely used throughout the city/state.
Internships in Hong Kong
Our internship programs offer top notch work experience opportunities that ensure participating students are fully prepared to enter the workforce after graduation. Our placements are high quality work experience opportunities where participants will gain first-hand knowledge and training about their career of interest. Interns will participate in projects directly relevant to their field of study, not just file papers or shadow senior staff. This offers a rare opportunity for students to prepare for their future occupations while enjoying the unique experiences of life as international citizens.
