Dormitories for Male Students
The objective of the international student dormitories is to provide a place where students from all over the country and the world who have diverse values can gather together and overcome differences in language and culture by living and learning together, thus developing the abilities necessary to succeed in global society. The dormitories are recommended for foreign students enrolled in the Faculty of International Liberal Arts, Japan Studies Center students, and exchange students that want to live with Japanese students.
Also, a resident manager (full-time) and several resident assistants (RAs) will provide support for the students’ dormitory life.
