1. Dual-Faceted Program

While the primary goal of the KUAS Global Business and Economics Program is to enable students to obtain a BBA, it also provides a comprehensive structure in which students can learn about economics. Understanding the mechanisms of economics is crucial for devising business strategies that drive the world forward. KUAS Biz aims to help students develop cognitive abilities from both managerial and economic perspectives, with the goal of becoming internationally active business professionals.

2. KUAS Biz’s Capstone: On-site Business Observation

KUAS Biz’s capstone is centered on project-based learning. The partner companies and projects vary from class to class, and students get to experience the business world firsthand by visiting companies, observing on-site discussions, and devising plans for business ideas. Students can develop their business thinking, analytical, and planning skills and sufficiently prepare themselves for exceptional performance in the corporate world.

3. Kyoto’s Entrepreneurial Longevity

With a history of being Japan’s capital for over a millennium, Kyoto has maintained its status as a land of longstanding, flourishing commerce. Many of the world’s leading Japanese companies were born in Kyoto. Given its spirit of entrepreneurship, Kyoto is an ideal destination for acquiring business skills and know-how. There is no doubt that this unique environment will stimulate and evolve students’ entrepreneurial potential.

4. Intensive Japanese Courses

KUAS provides all international students with intensive Japanese language courses to broaden their future career paths at no additional cost. After acquiring Japanese language proficiency, students can also take classes conducted in Japanese. By studying with Japanese students and engaging in cultural exchange, students can deepen their knowledge and interpersonal skills and increase their employment options.
