Showa University is celebrating 95 years of academic excellence by pushing its scientific research boundaries and welcoming new international students.
Japan’s Showa University has a great story to tell when it comes to attracting the best and brightest students. With 95 years of innovative thinking, it is renowned as a leading institution for medical progress. Now, it’s continuing to bolster and refine its reputation by welcoming all international arrivals. The university includes the stunning Fujiyoshida campus nestled at the base of the iconic Mount Fuji, which is distinguished for its nearly 60-year history of holistically integrating students from different faculties, through its first-year dormitory system where all students live and study together.
Showa has also made leaps in innovative learning techniques, by developing new virtual treatment simulations before students embark on real patient treatment for the most well-rounded education. Showa researchers are also making great strides in cancer treatments as well as Endobrain–AI endoscopic technology treatments, that they hope to export to nations such as India, Vietnam and Thailand. Dr. Tadashi Hisamitsu, president of Showa University, is proud of his institution’s research and international outlook. “Our students are able to work on site with real patients, performing real treatments and providing real help, and building this community together. We are positive any student will cherish an education here,” said Dr. Hisamitsu.
