  5. What advice will you give to Indian students who aspire to study in Japan?

    Japan has some of the best and most world-class universities with great research facilities. Moreover, Japan is widely considered a safe country for students, with mature infrastructures and efficient public transportation. The Japanese government is also focusing on increasing the internationalisation of education and looking for more and more Indian students to study in Japan.

So, if you study in Japan, you will no doubt study in a well-rounded education system, you will experience a unique culture and you will have a chance to gain more international perspective. Even if you don’t know Japanese, you will still be able to apply for English programmes in Japan. However, if you could learn the Japanese language, then surely, it opens more job opportunities in the Indian and Japanese markets. Japanese companies such as Honda, Yamaha, Sony, and Toyota have manufacturing facilities in India, which means, there are more job opportunities for Indian citizens who can speak Japanese.
