Embark on a journey of self-discovery!
KUAS supports students who have a strong desire to go abroad. When you are young, your mind is sharp and your senses are keen, and that is when it is the best time to go abroad and see the world with your own eyes. At the same time, studying abroad is a great opportunity to broaden your own horizons. Go abroad and learn about a world that you have never seen before, while also discovering something new about yourself.
Exchange Programs
Students are sent to and accepted from overseas universities with which KUAS has exchange agreements. These programs are six months to one year.
Overseas Short-Term Training Programs
During the spring and summer vacation periods, students can study in a foreign country and experience different cultures through personal interactions, visits to local companies, and cultural activities.
Events held in English
At KUAS, the International Office plans and organizes events that are conducted in English so that students can have fun while learning and practicing their language skills. In the 2020 academic year, we hosted a photo scavenger hunt where students raced around campus to see which team could take the most photos of hidden objects. The International Office plans to organize and hold more events like this in the future.
Support for International Students
KUAS provides personal support for international students from the time they enroll in KUAS to the time they graduate.
Exchange Agreement Partners
In order to promote the development of top-tier professionals who will go on to become industry leaders, which is the goal of our university, KUAS actively promotes International Exchange and is always seeking to expand its network of exchange agreement partners.
