This undergraduate program at Hokkaido University in Hokkaido, Japan runs for four years and begins in October, with coursework delivered in English. Hokkaido University traces its history to 1876, when it opened as Sapporo Agricultural College and became the first institution in Japan to confer a bachelor's degree. The university has since grown into a comprehensive research institution built around 12 undergraduate schools and 21 graduate schools, spanning nearly every field within the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences, with research recognized across Japan and internationally. Students entering this bachelor's program join a broad academic community where coursework typically combines foundational lectures, seminar discussion, and laboratory or fieldwork depending on the chosen specialization, alongside opportunities to work with faculty engaged in ongoing research. An English-taught bachelor's track lets international students begin university-level study in Japan without first mastering Japanese, while still situating them on a campus with ties to national and international partners across the sciences and humanities. Over four years, undergraduates generally progress from broad introductory courses toward more specialized study in their chosen discipline, often completing a capstone project, thesis, or research seminar in the final year. Graduates from programs of this kind commonly move into further graduate study, research positions, or professional careers in the public and private sectors, drawing on both the technical training and the cross-cultural experience gained while studying at a Japanese national university. Applicants should review the specific faculty or department offering the October intake for details on course structure and specialization tracks open to English-medium students.
