Study Abroad Programs in Machida, Japan

Tokyo is more than a backdrop in this study abroad program—it becomes part of everyday student life. Based at J. F. Oberlin University in Machida, a well-connected suburb of Tokyo, the program allows international students to study in Japan while remaining close to one of the world’s most influential global cities. Coursework focuses on Japanese language, culture, society, media, and business, with many classes taught in English to support students from a wide range of academic backgrounds. Students may participate during the summer, for a semester, or for a full academic year, making it easy to align the program with personal and academic goals. Learning extends beyond the classroom through lectures, local field trips, and cultural activities that connect academic topics to real-life experiences in Japan. Participants live alongside Japanese and international students, creating daily opportunities for cross-cultural exchange. Upon completion, students earn an official academic transcript from J. F. Oberlin University, which may be transferable to their home institution.
