What are "Best" Universities in Japan? Tier List 

I think it's better to call the list "well known" university then? You did not even mention all 7 Imperial Universities!

Seriously though, why isn't tokodai included?

Please upload your content to minds and bitchute in 2018-2020

Most of the government funded public unis in AU+NZ+UK+CA+USA have become a fucking JOKE They are 99% LEFT WING MARXIST brainwashing centres removing science biology free speech facts raw data over emotions, feelings , offence and the cult of Marxism

yuta does japan have some kind of exchange projects?and which countries is it available for?

1. Any place in Kyushu or Okinawa. 2. Any place in Shikoku. 3. Any place in Tokai. 4. Any place in Hokkaido. 5. Every place not listed.

@@RyanNesbit69 depends on what one wants. If one prefers city life your list doesn't hold true.

@@RyanNesbit69 Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Fukuoka

Yokohama would top the list.

@@RyanNesbit69 Basically

You’re very lucky. I am a French undergrad and want to participate in an exchange program. My two choices are Waseda and UCLA (or one of the UC campuses). Which one would be the best in your opinion for my resume ?

btw this ranking is made by an idiot and absolutely wrong. This one is right. 東大(Tokyo uni)≒京大(Kyoto uni)>>国立医学部医学科>東工大>一橋(Hitotsubashi)>>旧帝大理系≒私立医学部医学科>横筑千理系≒旧帝大文系>横筑千文系神戸理系>早慶(Waseda n Keiou)上位>国公立大学>上智ICU≒早慶下位理科大>>MARCH＝慶應SFC>その他

@Wth happened to my name as much as I hate to admit it and as much as I hate the idea of "prestige" concerning universities, it's more accurate than Yuta's version, from another Japanese perspective. Yuta seems to either be very biased against public schools or just did not do enough research on this one.

Jason Charrier And if a lighthouse is built in Japan’s Harvard, would it be called 東大灯台？

And if they’re big and strong, they are 強大京大兄弟

You are good in arabic language yeah

Yo, Mike

Hey am thinking of doing the same but with either Kyoto or Tokyo university from Dutch universities like Utrecht, I want to know if you like had to do an extra test for the exchange program or if the university you are already accepted into has a program with Kyoto/Tokyo university, you are automatically accepted into those too. Am scared because I suck at math and apparently you need to do a math test just for the entrance of Tokyo university, and probably with Kyoto university too. I wanna know that if I can get into Utrecht or whatever, I will automatically be able to do an exchange program in Japan.

Is he japanese?

Hardcore

@@citrusblast4372 no he isn't

Meanwhile iam always sleep at class Feelsbadman

Galang Putra Fendriansyah I didn‘t go to most of my bachelor courses... I went to ETH, Todai and MIT. If you study for your tests and put enough time into actually important shit (such as reading papers, getting assistant positions etc) you‘re gonna be fine.

I am graduating from high school. Do you have to be in a university in your own country then apply or can you apply directly to a Japanese university.

@@IamINERT it depends what you are trying to do. If you're trying to just study abroad for a year or two and finish your degree in your home country then it would probably be best to apply for study abroad through the university in your country through their study abroad program. If you are trying to get your degree abroad then it would be best to apply for the Japanese university directly. I'm in the U.S. so it might be very different than where you are.

@@Vietnomeez I'm US too. So which is better Us degree or J degree or does it vary on the job you went to get.

@@IamINERT The job you want to get and also where you want to work. If you want to work in Japan I am sure the upper echelon universities in the U.S. will look good on your resume i.e Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc... but my assumption would be if you went to a top tier school in either country it would net you a higher probability of landing a better job. Especially since jobs in Japan specifically like Yuta said tend to favor students who graduated from S or A tier universities. More importantly, in the U.S., internships and networking are major factors in landing a good job so if you decide to work in the U.S do everything you can to intern in the field you wish to work in so you can build those relationships with companies established in the field and also people who are already working in the field. It is far easier to get a job if you know somebody or someone you know knows somebody working for that company.

Lol I mean there is already Tier Zoo, not sure how much weirder you can get. Tiers for universities seems normal to me since they are frequently ranked already, just now in a new format.

Same

so, which one did you choose if I may ask?

It depends on what job you want to do

@@mcfarofinha134 for example a 専門学校 in Web Development?

Oh my Goddd how'd you make it ;-;

I'll try todai university lmao

It's around #28 worldwide I think

You are just comparing the overall undergrad lecture levels and ignoring the actual students raw intelligence, research from faculty, and also graduate study level. Join, for example, the UTIPE Master's Program in Economics at Tokyo and you will see if the lecture levels are high or low. It is also important to mention that if you do not speak Japanese, then the classes option would be pretty limited (around just 5% of all offered classes to Japanese students). Since you are just an exchange student, then the professors really do not care about you and just want to give pretty much easy lessons. I actually did a semester abroad at Princeton, but I didn't find the lectures to be hard at all... so can I judge the university just by this measure?

I‘m a ZHAW student and I‘m soon making a trip to Sophia Uni, I heard from my peers that it will be like holidays compared to ZHAW. And ZHAW is no match for ETH.

Good question, but impossible to answer as many universities don't ever get evaluated. Especially in lesser known countries. I wouldn't be surprised if some random university from Iran beat it.

@@MJ-uk6lu I mean it would make sense that lesser known or less developed countries have worse education...

I'm currently at Kyodai myself and I agree with this wholeheartedly!

@Der Schwindel I think you are correct. When people go by name recognition they are just running a popularity contest. The world is definitely changing. Companies are looking more at past accomplishments, proven skills, and abilities these days. Elon Musk, and IBM employ nearly 50% of their workforce with no degree requirements. If you have proven capabilities, they will give you an opportunity.

@billy khan, in general startups do not do basic research. Only large companies and governments can afford to fund basic research. Startups are generally started by people who have spun off from big companies. Remember that without basic research the world economy will dry up. Japan is one country where basic research is drying up and advanced education is falling off. Even the big famous universities (Todai for example) have been passed in the number of research papers published. For example, (www.oist.jp) OIST in Okinawa, was rated the top research university in Japan (2020) based on the number of (highly rated by peer review) research papers.

next to my apartment lol. I guess it is pretty hard to get in, one of the best art college in Japan

Aogaku is one of great universities in Japan. No problem! Please have proud :-)

Very interesting thought indeed.

You're early to the party then

you early mate

definitely an akira kurosawa film.

Did they Engrish?

Did they teach english? Or does the teachers fluent in english?

Could you make japanese friends?Were Japanese students friendly?

omg, I just watched one of your vlogs from there and then this video and here you are again 😂 I am going to Kyodai next April, any tips?

Me too lol well later this year

Me too what the heck

You guys should meet up!

Did you make it

If your Japanese is good enough to the point that you can understand complex concepts related to your field in Japanese....then definitely go for a Japanese-taught course. English-taught courses are mostly shit in Japan and in other countries where English isn't widely spoken.

From the Japanese hierarchy Kobe>Doshisha>Kwansei These 3 are quite prestigious !!

depends on the department

tohoku is prestigious and well known

"From the international students perspective" so you are basically comparing different opinions from people that didn't study in both. Isn't easier to just look where the best companies are recruiting and where did the best government workers study?

MetBitTV ok then that would mean Todai/Kyodai/Tokodai (maybe also Tohoku)

@Hanqing Cheng Yes, I'm a japanese student and you're absolutely right the list should be this: S: Tokyo A: Kyoto, Hitotsubashi, Tokyo Institute of Tech B: Osaka, Waseda(science), Keio(science) C: Nagoya, Tohoku, Hokkaido, Kyushu(liberal arts), Keio(liberal arts) D: E: GMARCH

​@@meteoryoyo Tokyo U, Kyoto U Hitotsubashi U, Tokyo Institution U, Osaka U Nagoya U, Tohoku U, Kyushu U, Keio U, Waseda U …(I don't care the others )

MetBitTV From the domestic students perspective too. Kyoto U is much more higher level than Waseda, Keio.

They probably thought you made it through the entrance exam, rather than being on exchange.

@@gaijinhakase1575 yes

People outside the US don't know much about American universities. We only know about Harvard and MIT. They're prestigious but we also have our own as well and since the education level in high school in the US isn't very impressive, we don't really fantasize about it like we would with Korean Universities or top European universities.

Hi! How things did go? I'm from South America too and I also want to apply for MEXT's scholarship!

​@@tatiana1310 English was a piece of cake and japanese i was so-so. but maths.... MATHS... I COULDN'T ANSWER ONE HALF OF A SINGLE QUESTION. When they came to get my test i was like "Hi! Until next year!, and they laughed but i was crying inside Ç_Ç Well, Im kind of happy they postponed it because of the pandemic cuz i still don't know a thing about maths LOL, one more year to study!

Me too

Maybe you took that reference from WakatteTV, but in fact that more accurately for measurements of hensachi should look at entrance exam’s subjects. For instance National universities with 5 to 7 subjects should be (+5), National universities with 3 subjects or below + Public universities with 5 or more subjects of 2nd entrance test(2.5), Public universities with 2 subjects or below of 2nd entrace test and private universities (+0)

that's a senmongakkõ, not a university. senmongakkõ is like a professional school- usually takes 2 years but the learning speed is quite faster in comparison from what I was informed of. You need usually JLPT N2 and an interview, while for unis you need these two + IELTS for example and EJU and they're for 3-4 years depending on the field of course.

@@Mari-hb5do That's very insightful, thanks!

Finally !! Yeah Rikkyo is awesome I wondered why nobody talking about it ! It’s modern and amazing ! Especially they have AI graduate school

Sorry i just saw that you u Had included Hosei in this video. So it seems a good one.

Tohoku is considered very high up on the list, right below Kyoto university and Osaka university. Basically all the schools that are just the names of a big city or prefecture like Nagoya university, Hokkaido university etc etc are considered very high level

@@heathersaxton8118 Thanks for the input!

how is/was it !!!

don't trust yuta. first of all he only chose to include universities in kanto area and kyodai. also no way is Kyoto regarded the same as Sophia or ICU. yuta just went to stupid websites and only looked at the deviation scores. this is what the tiers really look like: S+ tier: University of Tokyo S tier: Kyoto University A+ tier: Osaka University, Hitotsubashi University, Tokyo Institute of Technology A tier: Hokkaido University, Tohoku University, Nagoya University, Kobe University, Kyushu University B tier: Tsukuba University, Chiba University, Yokohama National University, Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Ochanomizu University, Waseda University, Keio University C tier: Kanazawa University, Okayama University, Hiroshima University, The University of Electro Communications, Tokyo Gakugei University, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, Nagoya Institute of Technology, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Sophia University, Tokyo University of Science, International Christian University I can continue the list if you want

Takeru Huang what are your thoughts on completing a mba at kyodai

Who does that in India? I mean 5 attempts?

@@pegeonpera the students who want get admission in IITs or AIIMS have to to qualify JEE Advanced or NEET examination which is very competitive and conducted on national level! The engineering study spend 3 years and generally medical students spend around 5-6 years for preparation in Coaching intstitutes!

@@VikrantSingh-vq7km I was referring to drop years.

Our education system is terrible. It is a system that drains off creativity.

same in indonesia.

What made you realize this once you got in ? I'm really curious to know

Ambre Badipi it was mostly the reactions that other people had when I told them what school I was studying abroad at. Like even the taxi driver I talked to when I had just arrived had this air of “ooh??” because his brother had gone there.

Why everyone study in Waseda ...??

How someone who only studied history is able to do accounting?

@@ffls775 The companies don't reallycare about your suject in Japan. Even the Universities don't care. You can have a bachelors in enviromental sience and then enroll in and finish a master in IT. It's really weird how everything is super random yet they really care about the university you went to.

@@BurakBuu can you advice me where to enroll or should i just wait for my masters

It is if you look at just the humanities courses. Kyoto has STEM courses and Hitotsubashi doesn't so Kyoto's better overall, but Hitotsubashi's a really, really good university.

It's the highest level among science universities for sure.
