About

Meijo University is a private comprehensive university in Nagoya, Aichi. This existing page introduces nine graduate schools, not undergraduate admissions or a complete listing of all current graduate schools. Its English name Environmental and Human Sciences corresponds to the Japanese 総合学術研究科 in the 2027 guide. The separate Information Engineering graduate school is listed in the current official guide; consult the official university listing for that program.

Instruction is primarily Japanese. The university notes exceptions for specific graduate courses, programs and subjects; this is not a general promise of an all-English degree. Confirm the language of supervision, coursework and examinations with the desired graduate school. Japanese and academic requirements differ by program; do not apply one common JLPT score to all nine.

Graduate Admission: 2027

2027 graduate admission: master/doctoral-first applicants need a bachelor degree, the specified foreign 16-year education or another accepted equivalent; doctoral-latter applicants need a master degree or accepted equivalent. Pharmacy has separate qualifications. International applicants must satisfy residence-status and program requirements. Prior eligibility confirmation may be mandatory for the foreign-applicant route and overseas academic history. Contact the graduate school/supervisor early; approval of the necessary documents and research fit is not automatic. Selection may include written specialist/language tests, interviews and research documents, varying by school and route.
