The language of instruction for all business courses is English, and only the Japanese language course requires the use of Japanese.
Language study emphasizes small class size and individual attention.
Based on a language placement test, students are assigned to classes appropriate for their level of language ability. Each class is tailored to provide students with comprehensive skills in reading, writing, and speaking. Business and industry terminology is incorporated into role playing that mimics situations experienced during the in-country internship. In such ways, students rapidly build the necessary survival skills to get the most from the internship experience. Because each student adds important qualities to the richness of the group by bringing different cultural and business perspectives to class discussions and group work, course waivers and substitutions are not generally approved for MBA requirements.
