WHY STUDY IN JAPAN?

WHY STUDY IN JAPAN?

Japan has long been one of the most attractive study-abroad destinations for international students, offering a unique blend of world-class education, cutting-edge technology, rich cultural traditions, and excellent career opportunities. For Vietnamese students in particular, Japan’s geographical proximity, cultural similarities, and strong economic ties make it an especially appealing choice. Here are the top 10 reasons why studying in Japan is a decision worth considering:

  1. World-class education: As a country that places great emphasis on education, Japan is home to five universities ranked among the Top 100 in the world (QS Rankings 2019). With an increasing number of programs taught fully or partially in English, Japan has become more accessible to students who do not speak Japanese. All degrees issued by the Japanese government are recognized globally.
  2. The Japanese government is open to international students: Both Japan and Vietnam have introduced policies that support international education and make self-funded study in Japan easier, with relatively simple requirements.
  3. Reasonable study costs: Studying in Asia is generally more affordable than studying in Europe or North America. The Japanese government allows international students to take part-time jobs to support their living expenses. These jobs are not too demanding, do not interfere with studies, and often offer relatively high income.
  4. Abundant scholarships: A wide range of scholarships is available from universities, organizations, foundations, and private companies. Currently, nearly half of all self-funded international students receive some form of scholarship, with the average amount being 60,000 yen per month.
  5. Learning from Japanese work ethic and culture: Studying in Japan gives you the opportunity to meet, interact, and work with Japanese people – known for their discipline, precision, creativity, and efficiency. You can learn valuable habits and skills from their strong work ethic.
  6. Cultural similarities & pleasant climate: Japanese culture shares many similarities with Vietnamese and other Asian cultures. Japan has four distinct seasons – spring, summer, autumn, and winter – each offering beautiful and iconic scenery that attracts visitors from around the world.
  7. Strong employment prospects in Japan or upon returning home: As a country with an aging population, Japan faces a significant labor shortage. After graduation, international students have excellent opportunities to work in Japan with attractive salaries. In addition, many Japanese companies are investing in Vietnam, giving returning graduates strong advantages in the job market.
  8. Japanese is becoming increasingly popular: Japan’s strong global economy has boosted the popularity of the Japanese language worldwide. With good Japanese language skills, students can significantly increase their earning potential.
  9. Excellent and affordable healthcare services: International students are typically required to enroll in the National Health Insurance program. When receiving medical treatment, they only need to pay 30% of the total cost. Compared to private healthcare systems such as in the United States, medical expenses in Japan are much lower, while quality remains among the best in the world.
  10. One of the safest and most civilized countries in the world: Japan has one of the lowest crime rates globally. Japanese people are famously polite and friendly. The streets are clean, transportation is punctual and efficient, and daily life is extremely convenient thanks to widespread convenience stores and vending machines.

These are 10 key reasons why studying in Japan is an excellent choice - Japan is a friendly country with many cultural similarities to Vietnam. So, what are you waiting for? Start your journey and explore the Land of the Rising Sun!
