Department of International Economy and Department of Economics in the Faculty of Faculty of Economics primarily focus their research and exchange activities on Southeast Asia. These include short-term and long-term English study abroad programs in Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, and Cambodia, which are attracting attention due to their particularly strong ties with Japan and the large number of Japanese companies operating there. We also offer an Asian Economics program in Indonesia, where students study economics using English. When traveling abroad, students often have no choice but to use English, which is not their native language, as a communication tool. Furthermore, they need to have a broad understanding of not only the local economy but also politics, culture, and history. Through this program, which includes cross-cultural understanding and an internship, students will develop the ability to listen to others' opinions and express their own thoughts and opinions in English, while also experiencing and learning about "growing Asia."
