Study Abroad and International Exchange Related Courses

The study abroad preparation course is a regular course established to support students who wish to study abroad. The courses offered are divided into two types: (1) courses to develop the language skills necessary for studying abroad, and (2) introductory courses that incorporate teaching methods from overseas universities.
(2) is a course that serves as an introduction to studying abroad, and is conducted in relatively easy-to-understand languages such as English, German, French, Chinese, and Korean. Please see the syllabus for an outline of the course.

Course names end with 1 if they are offered in the spring semester, and 2 if they are offered in the fall semester. Even if the courses offered in the spring and fall semesters have the same name, they are independent courses, and you can take either 1 or 2, or both 1 and 2 consecutively. There are 1-credit courses (classes that develop the language skills necessary for studying abroad) and 2-credit courses (classes that serve as an introduction to studying abroad).

The classification of each course (such as "Elective subjects," "Interdepartmental Specialized Courses," and "University-Wide Specialized Courses") varies depending on the faculty. When registering for courses, be sure to check the "course requirements" and "syllabus" of each faculty.

1. The Study Abroad Preparatory Course is based on the premise that students will actively participate in class, and classes are held in small numbers to enhance the educational effect. Therefore, if there are a large number of participants, the instructor may decide to conduct a selection test in the first class and limit the number of participants.
2. The maximum number of students per class is approximately 20.
3. When registering for courses, carefully consider the content and select the courses that are necessary for you. Please avoid taking multiple courses and then abandoning them halfway through.

* Credited Auditor and Nerima City-Musashi Univrsity Non-Degree Program Students are not eligible to take the study abroad preparation course.
However, this does not apply to selected students from Musashino High School.

EAS courses are taught in English and cover topics such as international relations, economy, culture, society, and history in East Asia. As many international students take these courses, we recommend them to motivated students who want to "study in English with international students," "experience classes simulating those at their study abroad destination," and "maintain their English skills after studying abroad." Discussions are conducted in English in class, allowing students to hone their English fluency and communication skills.
