International Study Programs are one of the highlights of COB experiences.

Inbound Programs:
Exchange studies at Rikkyo's College of Business provide opportunities of a lifetime for students from around the world. We are confident that study experiences at the College of Business, that focus on leadership and global perspectives and are taught by the nationally recognized faculty members, alone should be a compelling reason for you to consider spending a semester or a year with us.

It is also worth pointing out that we are located right in the center of Tokyo, a cosmopolitan city with more than 12 million people. Living in Tokyo, which is vibrant, fast-paced and yet historical, with fellow Japanese and international students should turn the excellent educational experiences into an exciting adventure. You can also travel to China, Korea and other parts of Asia easily. Beijing, Seoul and Shanghai are all within two to three hours away.

The COB is one of few full-fledged and top-class business programs in Japan that offer a comprehensive range of undergraduate and graduate courses in English and Japanese. So even if you do not speak Japanese, you can still come to spend a semester or a year at the COB.
