Future Leaders & Thinkers Lakeland University Japan offers innovative ways for students to earn their academic degrees and make their career goals a reality. Beginning your degree at our Tokyo campus, you’ll find yourself immersed in an exciting and global campus with students and faculty from Japan and around the world. From there you’ll have options to stay in Japan and complete your fully-accredited B.A. degree, or transfer to either of our sister-schools in Virginia or Wisconsin. In short, your college experience and pathway to a career can be as local or global as you would like. A few other reasons why students choose LUJ: Our Cooperative Education program LUJ’s on-campus Student-Run Businesses Internship opportunities in Japan and the United States Short-term / long-term study abroad programs at our U.S. sister schools Maximum transfer credits Affordability Apply Today Experiential Education Combine Knowledge With Real-Life Practice LUJ is an Experiential Education institution. We believe the best way to learn is by combining knowledge with real-life practice. This includes professional work experience through more traditional internships as well as Lakeland’s award-winning Cooperative Education program. Both options give students the advantage of expanding and deepening their understanding of various studies by applying new knowledge and concepts in real-world situations. Another unique aspect of LUJ’s experiential education is our Student-Run Businesses (SRB’s), which are on-campus businesses that help students hone their business and entrepreneurship skills while earning course credit and employee wages. Testimonial I chose LUJ simply because I’ve wanted to study within an English environment since I feel more motivated and empowered studying in English. I know there’s many other Japanese institutions that offer classes in English but LUJ was the best match for me as there’s more opportunities to really feel international cultures compared to other Japanese universities.- - Taiga Ishibe, 4-Year Undergraduate Student Testimonial By going to LUJ, I feel like I’m truly creating a life/future for myself here in Japan. Getting my degree in the country I plan on working in has made me feel sure of my future in Japan. There is also the opportunity to talk with LUJ staff who have a lot of long-term experience living and working in Japan.” - Peyton Bagley, 4-Year Undergraduate Student Testimonial The main reason I enrolled in Lakeland University Japan was because I could not only learn English, but I could actually "use" English to learn about my field of interest. I decided to go on to the four-year program at Lakeland University to study hospitality. I also joined an on-campus venture and am now in charge of sales and marketing. It is not easy to balance studying and working, but the opportunity for us students to operate the cafe and other facilities on campus is an experience that is not available at other universities.I was anxious and worried about entering an American university, but now that is a fond memory. - Risa Kiryu, 4-Year Undergraduate Student Testimonial I chose LUJ because I wanted to get the American college life experience that I felt was never possible in Japan. I would recommend LUJ to other people because it forces people (primarily in Japan) to get out of their comfort zone and learn about other cultures from people that actually live in those different countries.” - Christopher Hartman, 4-Year Undergraduate Student Testimonial After coming to Japan for the first time, I knew I’d never be able to say goodbye. When my time came to return back to the states, I looked at all options available for me to stay, and LUJ was the best option. Their 4 year BA program was also a no-brainer because I want to work in Japan after graduation.” - Jonah Arkinson, 4-Year Undergraduate Student Testimonial I was interested in learning things in English and I wanted to go to an American university, but had little confidence in my English. LUJ was perfect because it is an environment where I can use both English and Japanese and be around Japanese people doing the same thing and be able to get help from them when I need it.” - Hikari Hasebe, 2-Year Undergraduate Student Request More Information Want to learn more about LUJ?
