Japanese Society Needs a Truly Global Approach


Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague


An article published in Nippon looks at data published in IIE’s Open Doors that show declining numbers of Japanese students abroad. When taken as a percentage of Japan’s also decreasing youth population, this data appears less damning for international education in Japan. Nevertheless, the author argues that the high cost and little return of overseas study for students returning to work in Japan encourages them to stay: "As I see it, young people are behaving quite rationally in light of the current state of the Japanese business world."
