Kakehashi Project Group B: Sophia University




Who would have thought that I would fall in love with Japan? With all it's "oishii" (delicious) food, amazing culture, hospitable citizens and many more impressive aspects of the Japanese culture and touches of Asian sophistication. But not only that, the country has the wonderful Sophia University that provides a truly global education at their campus in the heart of Tokyo City. Here are the major reasons why a high school senior should consider choosing and applying for Sophia University.

1. Sophia University is one of the top private universities in Japan
What enables Sophia University to maintain its ranking as one of Japan's top private universities are its reputation for excellence in undergraduate education, outstanding graduate programs, and a competitive research environment. 

2. Sophia University is Japan's Pioneer in Global Education
Sophia has English-taught classes particularly in their Liberal Arts program. The university has been offering English-medium programs for more than 60 years. In fact, Sophia was chosen for a series of subsidy programs being implemented by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology to internationalize universities in Japan, including the Global 30 Project. These programs are helping to further strengthen Sophia's efforts to boost the global competency for its students. 

3. The university is culturally and richly diverse. 
Imagine encountering different ethnicity or nationalities in a campus of the city of Tokyo. What's even more interesting is that the university is like a hub that brings and connects all faculties, graduate and undergraduate students in all departments. Aside from that, Sophia University is described as to be functioning as a microcosm, a community regarded as encapsulating in smaller scale the characteristics of something much larger.

Whichever field of study a scholar chooses, I am sure it will all be worth it. I am sure that the time spent in Sophia University will be both rewarding and enlightening.
