\u3000When I was in high school, I had never imagined myself studying in Japan in the undergraduate level. When I saw the program\u2019s brochure, I thought this would be the right choice for me. What I like most about the program is that we can study science in English, while there are Japanese language classes for us as well. In addition, students can participate in extracurricular activities such as clubs, seminars, or international parties which provide us a lot of opportunities not only to learn about Japanese culture but also to live in the society surrounded by international friends.
\u3000I am now in the last semester of my undergraduate study, and after this I will proceed to the Graduate School of Science to continue my education in Physics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u3000My ambition is to be a scientist and ISP is ideal for me. The program includes general education courses in the first semester and lab experience which are eye-opening to the different areas of science and help to decide our future lab. The program also includes courses in liberal arts and business which equip the students with skills applicable in various fields. I recommend the ISP program to anyone with a passion to accept challenges and to study science under the guidance of international and
Japanese faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u3000When I was twelve, I became fascinated with nature from the internet, as well as Japanese culture from anime and origami. With these two factors in mind, I chose to study Biology in Hokkaido University\u2019s ISP program. It gave me the opportunity to study the natural sciences in English, while immersing myself in Japan\u2019s rich culture and its language. After my bachelor\u2019s, my goals are to pursue a master\u2019s degree at Hokkaido University in Environmental Biology in order to protect our planet from pollution and to become fluent in Japanese. I recommend anyone who has a passion for science and Japanese culture to come and study at ISP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
