Fukuoka Women’s University Student Exchange Program, Japan

Fukuoka Women’s University is offering its short-term study abroad program to ambitious students focusing on Japanese culture from April, 2013 to March, 2014. The students can choose to participate in the program for either 1 semester or 1 year (starting April or October 2013).

During the Spring Semester(April – August)the program will be focusing on Japanese traditional culture, and throughout the Fall Semester (October – March) emphasis is placed on Japanese contemporary culture.

Students can opt for an Independent Study Project either focusing on contemporary or traditional topics.

The WJC program was established to commemorate the reform of Fukuoka Women’s University into a globalized university in 2010. The program grants participants from each partner university a scholarship. Based on the availability of student positions and the number of applications from all partner universities, a total of 25 to 27 students will be selected as participants. Only female students are eligible for WJC.
