Aichi Gakuin University’s Japanese Language Program (AGU-JLP) for Exchange
Students |
|
AGU offers its Japanese Language Program (AGU-JLP) to exchange students
from affiliated universities overseas. The AGU-JLP consists of 3 levels
of Japanese language courses: 1) basic, 2) basic/intermediate, and 3) intermediate.
The contents of the classes will be tailored to the language level of each
individual exchange student, so any student at affiliated universities
can feel free to challenge the Japanese Language Program at AGU, regardless
of their Japanese ability. In addition, all exchange students can register
for classes and seminars offered in English. For those exchange students
with a Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) score of N2 or above may
enroll in any classes offered in Japanese language in any department in
the university (with the instructor’s consent). Please refer to the table
below about the levels of Japanese proficiency and the kinds of classes
available to students at each level.

Cultural Exchange with Japanese Students |
|
The AGU-JLP offers exchange students a truly unique opportunity to immerse
themselves in Japanese culture and language. Because the program is exclusive
and open to only a small number of students from abroad, those students
will have to challenge themselves on a daily basis to learn Japanese and
adapt to the cultural environment. Exchange students will be able to enjoy
making new Japanese friends and interacting with their classmates. They
will also be encouraged to enroll in a seminar that suits their academic
interests, something that will also help them to make new friends. Moreover,
exchange students can be Learning Assistants (LAs) at the AGU English Lounge
where LAs help Japanese students with their English speaking and listening
skills. These LAs play an integral part in cultural exchange events held
at the English Lounge, giving them even greater opportunities to meet Japanese
students.
