Temple University Japan Campus (TUJ) announced that the number of undergraduate students for the fall 2023 semester exceeded 2,100 for the first time.The students come from approximately 70 countries, and despite the severe impact of the new coronavirus, the number of students has increased by more than 3% compared to the fall semester three years ago.
The reasons why TUJ attracts so many students are its international environment, individualized approach to each student, quality of education, outstanding alumni, and affordable tuition fees compared to universities in the United States. It will be done. Starting in 2021, we will launch the "Next Generation Leadership Program" in which new students will be selected and receive intensive, practical leadership training before the start of the semester. Starting in May 2022, we will introduce the "Fly to Philly Program," which will significantly reduce the cost of studying abroad at our main school in the U.S., as well as the revamped Bridge Program (conditional admission system), which will last for two years in Japan and the U.S. Strategic initiatives such as changing the step-by-step curriculum to one that can be completed in three years in Japan and one year at the main school in the United States are also thought to have contributed significantly to the increase in student numbers.
In addition, from the fall semester of 2023 (September onward), Temple University's Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management, which has received high praise worldwide, will be opened at TUJ, and in May (summer semester), the Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management will open at TUJ.

Temple University offers a wealth of internship and job opportunities, making for a diverse and enriching learning experience.
As the number of students has increased, we have strengthened our full-time faculty by inviting people with a wealth of knowledge and specialized knowledge from around the world, including the United States.At the same time, facilities and equipment have been improved, and a new student dormitory with approximately 90 rooms has been constructed in Nogawadai, Miyamae Ward, Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, which has convenient access to the campus (Sangenjaya, Setagaya Ward) as housing exclusively for TUJ students.
