[Student's Voice]
◎ Name: Ma Qianqian
I enjoy the atmosphere of classes where I study with international students and exchange students from various countries.
The school environment is beautiful and conducive to studying.
I have opportunities to teach classes outside of campus and participate in extracurricular activities, so I'm really enjoying a fulfilling university life.

[Professor's Voice]
◎Name: Tomohiro Serizawa
◎ Professor, Department of Japanese Studies, Faculty of International Studies (for international students)
This department is characterized by three pillars. One is Japanese language education that can be learned from any level in a small class. The second is a curriculum that allows students to learn a wide range of Japanese culture and society. The third is "narralogy" to learn about Nara in the age of globalization. Furthermore, there is also a Japanese teacher training course.
