On Thursday, November 20, 2025, Teikyo University was selected for the "Special Program for Prioritizing the Placement of Government-Scholarship International Students" implemented by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. This special program aims to encourage universities with excellent systems for accepting international students to establish a system for attracting excellent international students by prioritizing the placement of students studying at domestic universities from overseas as government-sponsored international students.
The program adopted by our university, the "Asia Highly Skilled Human Resources Development Program," accepts promising students from rapidly developing Asia and aims to cultivate highly skilled human resources who will contribute to the development of Asia through education and research guidance based on our university's spirit of practical Practical learning. It also aims to cultivate human resources who will deepen understanding of Japan and lay the foundation for strengthening relations between Japan and Asia. Students will be accepted into Division of Economics Graduate School of Economics at our Graduate School. The priority placement period is three years from 2026 to 2028, with five placement slots set aside each year.
The "Asia Advanced Human Resources Development Program" is a Graduate School-level expansion of the "TAEP (Teikyo-Asia Exchange Program)," which has been implemented at our university's Faculty Faculty of Economics since 2014. TAEP aims to cultivate human resources who will contribute to the development of Japan and Asia, and currently accepts students from partner universities in seven Southeast Asian countries, offering a curriculum in which students can complete all the credits required for graduation through classes taught entirely in English.
This program provides Southeast Asian students with a strong interest in Japan's economic development with the opportunity to study at Graduate School in Japan on research topics such as the economic and social structures that supported that development, corporate management, and human capital. Japanese students can also take classes in English, and co-learning with international students from diverse cultural backgrounds is expected to lead to high-quality learning for both parties.
