Tama University International Affairs offers short-term study tours to our overseas partner institutions as part of our initiative to expand cooperative learning opportunities and add value to our educational partnerships. Bring your unique vision for a short-term intensive study tour of Japan to life!
Short-term immersion tours provide students with a platform to internationalize their course of study in a short period of time, immersing themselves in Japanese language and culture.
