Students are in class several hours a day, five days a week. Many more hours daily are devoted to study. The academic workload is extremely challenging and demanding.

Extracurricular Activities
Extracurricular activities include the opportunity to participate in the Graduate Student Organization (GSO), representing student interests in non-academic matters. Weekends may be spent by participating in local community events and activities. The splendid natural setting of the IUJ campus and the rich traditions of rural community offers many opportunities to explore the Japanese culture and the beautiful outdoors.

Sports Facilities
In addition, the IUJ sports facilities allow students to participate in a wide range of athletic activities including basketball, volleyball, soccer, training, aerobics, karate, table tennis and softball.

Global Community
IUJ's multi-culture orientation provides students an exceptional opportunity to mix with and learn from each other. IUJ students bring home with them new perspectives along with joyful memories of events they participated in around the campus and local communities.
