Q. Why did you choose Japan and Meiji University?
Since Japan is considered the strongest country from the aspects of economy and tourism, it is the country that Asian people who want to study economics choose.
As an international student from Taiwan, I chose Meiji University not only because of its famous history but also because of its globalized community.
Q. Tell us about your campus life at Meiji University.
Meiji University has a really globalized community, consisting of students from all over the world. It also provides various different English classes from each department in each campus.
From my own experience, I have taken many different classes from other departments such as Accounting, Law and Political Science, and Economics.
Q. Tell us about your life in Japan.
This being the first time living abroad by myself, I think Japan is a great place to live inーnot only due to Japanese people being really kind to people from abroad, but also because of the high quality of life.
During my three years of living in Japan, I’ve visited many different places, seeing many different cultures and experiencing the beauty of Japan.
Q. About the Japanese language
When I first came to Japan, I didn’t posses any Japanese skills, so I took the Japanese language class provided by the school.
But after about one and a half years after coming to Japan, I passed the N3 Japanese test.
I already know many Kanji so I don't take Kanji class anymore, but now I’m preparing for the N1 test myself.
Q. What are your plans for the future?
I’m planning to continue my studies by pursuing a graduate degree in Japan. Because of the nice environment, I also plan to stay in Japan after graduating from graduate school, focusing on the study of economics and business.
SGJS provides "Seminar (Zemi)" classes from the 3rd year. Now I am in a seminar in which the research theme is "Japanese Business Organizations in the Global Market".
