Experience learn-by-doing in Yokohama and in corporations, while learning how to write business plans and proposals with a cross-disciplinary apporach
Making the most of our relationship with the city of Yokohama, the university provides training in business plan proposals, working with the local government and corporations. The training integrates humanities and science in collaboration with the School of Data Science and the School of Medicine.
Short-term study abroad programs and summer seminars for promoting international experience
Up to 100 students per year are encouraged to participate in summer seminars overseas and study abroad programs to gain experience outsie Japan. We particularly encourage sophomores to actively involve themselves in the study abroad programs or seminars from June to September. Besides that, international students are also invited to interact with the local students in the summer programs.
Nurture practical skills through work placements abroad
We offer opportunites for internships in international companies and institutions to gain global perspectives and management skills vital for conducting business.
Message from the Dean
YCU's origin can be traced back to the Yokohama School of Commerce, which was founded in 1882 just after the port of Yokohama was open. Students at YCU learn problem-solving management skills, based on our principle 'developing talent through relationships'. We capitalize on our broad network of alumni currently active in the business world, and our location in one of the major global commercial hubs in Japan.
