Study Abroad and International Exchange
To thrive in a global society, you need not only language skills but also the ability to communicate with people from diverse backgrounds. Experiencing different cultures and values broadens your prospects after graduation by equipping you with international skill sets.
The regional and corporate collaboration programs and study abroad programs offered by ZEN University are designed to be as affordable as possible for students, thanks to the support of The Nippon Foundation. This approach reflects our desire to encourage participation from a broad spectrum of students, enabling more individuals to join.
