In 2014, Soka University was selected as a Top Global University Project by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. Ever since the university has engaged in the globalization of its campus and has strived to reach its goals. Currently, Soka University has tied academic exchange agreements with 222 universities in 61 countries and regions. Not only that, but every year, approximately 900 students (11.6% of the total number of students) study abroad or attend overseas training (accompanied by the approval of credits), and every year approximately 860 foreign students (11.1% of the total number of students) study at this campus.
The university will continue to engage in realizing a campus that is internationally rich where various types of students can join together while studying.
