Studying at IDEAS
13 Japanese students and 17 overseas fellows (including CLMV fellows for Capacity building activity of ERIA: (Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia)) from 154 Asian countries have joined IDEAS for the 2009-2010 program.
About half of the classes are joint with Japanese students.
Overseas fellows study basic Japanese language besides the core courses.
Field Trip
IDEAS organizes several field trips during the course. For 2009-2010 program, we visited Ichihara City (Chiba Prefecture), Joetsu City (Niigata Prefecture), Hiroshima and Kyoto. It is a rare opportunity to study various aspects of Japanese society such as the system of agriculture, role of local government and the situation of traditional industries.
Intensive lecture
IDEAS invites professors from universities abroad or International organization for one-week intensive lecture.
Fellows are asked to do their assignments and presentations on the final day.
International exchange
This one-day program is held with the cooperation of Chiba Prefecture government.
Fellows visit high schools to teach some topics on their countries.
It is a good opportunity to know the system of Japanese education.
