6 findings

  2. What you can study

    The university is associated with Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology, also known as Kaiyodai, and has campuses in Minato, Tokyo and Kōtō, Tokyo. The programme catalogue is still being compiled, so confirm the available subjects and degrees on the university website before applying.

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should check the university website for the current application route, required documents, deadlines, and any language or entry requirements. Because the available admissions details are not published here, confirm the exact process with the admissions office before applying.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a tuition fee in the information available here; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Living costs in Tokyo should also be budgeted for separately, along with accommodation, transport, and daily expenses.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is not published, so confirm it before applying if you need English-taught study or Japanese-language support. Also check visa steps, document requirements, housing options, and whether your chosen campus is in Minato or Kōtō, Tokyo.

  6. How it compares

    Japan has 571 universities, so this is one option within a very large national system. Its main distinction is that it is public and tied to a Tokyo-based marine-focused university name, which may appeal to applicants looking for study in Tokyo rather than a smaller regional setting.
