universities in Japan
 

Hi I am currently living in the USA and I have been always interested in Japan and it's culture. I am 16 and going into my junior year of high school, I plan on learning the Japanese language up to my senior year. I intend to get a full scholarship to a university in Japan but I wanted to know what colleges offer music and record producing programs as well as academic courses? I want to be a music producer as good as one of my favorite producers Nujabes.

Full scholarship to a University in Japan? Hmm...I have never heard of that. I know of exchange programs, but those are usually a semester or a year.

I don't know that Japanese colleges give scholarships to foreigners. (I don't think my school in the US did, either). What would be the point? After graduation it wouldn't be guaranteed you could live in Japan, so what would be the point of educating someone for free so they can take that knowledge back to their home country?

universities in japan
 

well actually it is a japanese government provided scholarship called a Monbukagakusho scholarship but that wasn't my question. I wanted to know about universities in Japan offering majors in music producing. Please any of those who have a reply can you just answer the question.

[edit: post deleted]

I don't think you can study music producing under the Monbukagakusho scholarshiop.

1. FIELDS OF STUDY

(1) Social Sciences and Humanities Social Sciences and Humanities-A: Laws, Politics, Pedagogy, Sociology, Literature, History, Japanese language, and others. Social Sciences and Humanities-B: Economics, and Business Administration. Note: Applicants who wish to major in the fields categorized as “others” may have difficulties in finding universities that can accept them.

(2) Natural Sciences Natural Sciences-A: Science (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry), Electric and Electronic Studies (Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Information Engineering), Mechanical Studies (Mechanical Engineering, Naval Architecture), Civil Engineering and Architecture (Civil Engineering, Architecture, Environmental Engineering), Chemical Studies (Applied Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Industrial Chemistry, Textile Engineering), and other fields (Metallurgical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Maritime Engineering, Biotechnology). Natural Sciences-B: Agricultural studies (Agriculture, Agricultural Chemistry, Agricultural Engineering, Animal Science, Veterinary Medicine, Forestry, Food Science, Fisheries), Hygienic studies (Pharmacy, Hygienics, Nursing), and Science (Biology). Natural Sciences-C: Medicine, and Dentistry. Note: A international student who intends to major in Natural Sciences is required to choose and enter first-, second-, and third-choice subjects from the same course (from Course A, B or C). (A student who wants to study Course C may choose his/her third-choice subject from Course B because Course C offers only two subjects.)

My area is exactly that one, A, I'm in the 11th grade, in Social Sciences and Humanities. My subjects are:

-portuguese
-History
-Sociology (I'm gonna have it in the 12th grade)
-Physical Education
-Spanish
-AP ("área de projecto", projects area :confused:)
_________
-Geography (not anymore, in the 12th grade that subject ends)
-english (same as geograpy)
-Philosofy (same)


At the university I'll learn the japanese culture and language and the chinese as well. Do you think I could apply to that schollarship?

The master degree years, two years, will be spent learning only chinese, and not japanese, will I not forget japanese? I' afraid so :s

Monbusho Program is very hard to get.

My g/f was the best student at her university but she didn't win the scholarship because she won too many other programs prior to Monbusho Scholarship.

She is still under consideration and the final result will be in around mid July.

This program is very Japanese and not only the qualifications are unclear but also the best candidates won't always win.

Any schoos that would offer Art and design. Like tattoo art?

Tatoo art in Japan?

Traditional Japanese tattoo is only for yakuza (Japanese gang) so no way that school teaches that stuff.

It's best to learn tattoo art in the Western countries where tattoo is not considered taboo.

do Japanese universities have problems with drunks like the American universities?
