Kobe University Summer Program in Japanese Language and Culture 2024

Published: 

About the program

The Kobe University Summer Program in Japanese Language & Culture is an intensive 9-day program for students studying Japanese at universities sharing academic partnerships with Kobe University. 

This program focusses on engaging students' Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking skills through studying current issues in Japan, aiming to raise overall Japanese ability, as well as deepening understanding today's Japanese society. It particularly aims to strengthen the speaking ability of students at Upper Intermediate level. Through classes and interaction with Japanese people, we hope to provide an experience as close to studying in Japan as possible.
