We recommend participating in summer programs in both Tokyo and Osaka, Japan’s two largest cities. It offers a unique opportunity to explore their different cultures, histories, and industries. Additionally, the program features a wide range of experiences, from rich food culture to exciting entertainment options. We hope you enjoy everything these two cities have to offer through this summer program!
The Shibuya Campus opened in 2023. The building is designed with the concept of a traditional Japanese house and “ENGAWA” integrated with state-of-the-art facilities and advanced IT features. Another standout feature is the Library corner, which showcases a curated selection of books chosen by ISI staff and has become a popular spot amongst students.
The campus’ design reflects the vibrant, friendly, and dynamic spirit of Osaka. The space has a bright and lively atmosphere, decorated with vivid colors that captures the city’s energetic character.
