Education in Japan also starts from kindergarten education and goes to primary school, junior high school, senior high school, university, master's degree, doctor's degree and postdoctoral education. At the same time, there are specialized schools and various schools in secondary education. Higher education includes specialized colleges, short-term universities, specialized schools and various schools. At the same time, special education is also an important part of Japan's education system, including schools for the blind and deaf, maintenance schools and so on. In addition to full-time schools, there are also communication schools in Japan, such as communication high school, communication university and communication graduate school. In a word, school education in Japan includes both full-time schools and exchange schools. There are both ordinary schools and special schools for the blind and deaf.
The educational system of Japanese schools is divided into six years in primary school, three years in middle school, three years in higher education and four years in undergraduate course. In addition, the monk course in higher education is two years, and the doctoral course is five years (equal to graduate school and doctoral class). In addition, graduates of higher education institutions can be promoted to short-term university education for two years, and there are other educational institutions, including various specialized colleges, specialized schools and correspondence schools. The school year in Japan is different from that in China, which starts in April every other year.
College: It aims to recruit middle school graduates, learn professional skills for educational purposes, and enable them to take up jobs. The academic system is five years. (Actually, it's a technical secondary school)
Specialized schools: There are three kinds of specialized schools, which teach ordinary courses and advanced courses for middle school graduates, regardless of their age or academic qualifications, as well as specialized schools suitable for high school graduates or those with equivalent academic qualifications, with the aim of learning the professional abilities and upbringing necessary for real life and obtaining a specialized degree after graduation. The length of schooling varies from school to school, but most of them are about two to three years.
Short-term university: He studied for two years (or three years), and he can get an associate degree (a bit like a junior college) after graduation. If there is an agreement between a short-term university and a four-year university, short-term university graduates can obtain a bachelor's degree by changing classes to study the standardized subjects of the four-year university. The educational policy of short-term universities emphasizes the study of practical skills, and its preparation methods strive to give full play to the characteristics of various disciplines and aim at obtaining various appraisal qualifications. The application conditions are high school graduates or equivalent, and most scholars are girls. After graduation, you can transfer to the third year of a four-year university in addition to taking part in work or continuing to study some professional subjects attached to a short-term university (one-year academic system).
There are about 500 universities in Japan, which are divided into three types: national, public and private. The university's education policy is centered on academic research, and the qualification is for high school graduates or those with equivalent qualifications. After graduating from college, you can get a bachelor's degree. The four-year university has a four-year academic system, but there are three kinds of universities, namely, comprehensive universities with humanities and sociology as the main part, comprehensive universities with engineering departments and engineering departments as the center, and single-subject universities.
Japanese research institutes are similar to those in Taiwan Province Province, with master's and doctor's programs, and the examination qualification is above that of university graduates. Japan calls "Master" a "monk", with a two-year academic system and a three-year doctorate. There are no monk courses in medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine, only four-year doctoral courses. The institute focuses on academic theory and application, and deeply studies many professional fields.
Admission qualifications are the same as those of ordinary students in universities. Interns can't get degrees. If they want to get a degree, they must take the entrance examination and become formal students. At the same time, there are research institutes in universities, which are institutions engaged in the highest degree of research within a certain range. There are about 160 such institutes in Japan.
The difference between international students and students. What are the names of foreign students studying in short-term universities, universities, junior colleges and junior colleges in Japan? International students? . And students studying in Japanese language schools are called? Just students? ; The residence qualification of international students is one year, after which their visas will be renewed. For students, the residence qualification is mostly half a year, but each school is different. What should students do if they want to stay in Japan after their detention period exceeds the time limit? Extend the detention period? Procedures, at this time, passport, foreigner registration certificate, application for changing detention qualification permit (in duplicate), application reason, school admission permit, proof of deposit balance (the same as the property certificate submitted when going abroad), identity guarantee, etc. International students also need to apply for additional visas, show their passports, foreigners' registration certificates, qualification certificates for studying abroad, etc. Within the maturity period of each year. Therefore, when you are going to study in Japan, you should consider this problem.
Only by carefully understanding Japan's education system can we know which schools we are going to study in.
