Japan

There are many good reasons to study in Japan. Some students are attracted by Japan’s high educational standards, while for others the attraction is Japan’s rich cultural heritage. With over 150,000 international students, Japan is one of the most popular destinations for international students. Tuition fees are comparatively cheap in Japan and a wide range of scholarships are available for international students. International students are also allowed to work 48 hours per week, earning from $ 10 to $17 dollars an hour. Internationally aware employees are also in a very strong demand in Japan where many companies actively recruit students with overseas learning-experience especially if they are able to speak a second language. For those wishing to remain in Japan after graduation, there is a strong job market for highly qualified graduates in Japan in which a recent survey around half of the major Japanese companies surveyed expressed a desire to hire foreigners graduating from Japanese institutions.
