Admissions Information for Graduate School (Postgraduate International Research Students)
The Postgraduate International Research Students Program ("Kenkyu sei" in Japanese) in the Graduate School of Engineering is a non-degree postgraduate program for foreign students who wish to study in a specific research subject under a supervising professor in his/her laboratory at graduate school level.
Admission for this program is evaluated by application documents without an entrance examination. If your application is accepted in a professor’s laboratory, you will receive a one year-position at the School of Engineering. After the initial year, if you want to continue research as an Postgraduate International Research Student, you are able to extend your position for one more year with the agreement of your supervisor and the completion of extension procedures. Please note that this program does not provide degrees or any qualifications upon the completion of study.
Postgraduate International Research Students can take the Japanese language classes at the School of Engineering.
As a self-supporting student, tuition should be paid in full to the university. The enrollment of this program starts in April or in October each year. For details, please refer to the following URL;
