   How it compares

   Japan has 571 universities, and Nagaoka University of Technology stands out within that system as one of only two universities of technology in the country. That makes it a more specialised option than a general university, so it is a stronger fit for applicants who want a technology-focused environment rather than a broad academic profile.
