Career Support with Dedicated Staff for International Students
Students can begin to design their own careers while systematically taking the KGU Career Design Courses. In the Career Support Section, staff dedicated to international students offer holistic job-hunting support, providing information useful in searching for jobs in Japan, along with career guidance sessions and individual counseling.
In the International Student Career Development Program of Yokohama, Kanagawa, as part of the formation of an academic city, a collaborative framework was built by the universities, economic organizations, and international exchange groups within Yokohama. The resultant program provides opportunities such as Business Japanese Language Education, Career Education, and the Internship Program for international students to build the skills necessary to work in Japan. Kanto Gakuin University’s international students can make use of this program under the Kanagawa International Student Employment Support Consortium.
