International Advanced Degrees Program: Application from Overseas

The Graduate School of Media and Governance awards degrees to students who have completed coursework and fulfilled all other requirements in the English language in the International Advanced Degrees Course (IADC).
English is the medium of instruction and also the language in which all assignments are to be submitted. Students from overseas will study with Japanese students, and will also participate in the same courses and research projects. The IADC recognizes no distinction between Japanese and non-Japanese students.
