Yokohama National University

1. 1

   The short answer

   Yokohama National University is a public university in Yokohama, Japan, and it suits students who want a master’s-level option at a national university. It is a better fit if you are looking for graduate study rather than a broad undergraduate programme choice.

2. 2

   What you can study

   The programme list shown is limited to one master’s degree option: 大学院芸術工学研究科. The university is described as having five graduate schools and four undergraduate faculties, but the available programme information is still narrow, so confirm the full current catalogue on the official website before applying.

   Getting in

   International applicants should check the university’s official admissions pages for the current entry requirements, document list, and deadlines for the specific master’s programme they want. The available information does not give language requirements, entrance tests, or application rounds, so these must be confirmed with the admissions office.

4. 4

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee in the available information; confirm the current fee with its admissions office. Living costs in Yokohama will still need to be budgeted separately, along with housing, transport, and daily expenses.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not stated, so confirm this for the programme you want before applying. You should also check whether you need proof of language ability, what documents must be translated or certified, whether there are visa-related deadlines, and how the university handles international applications from abroad.

   How it compares

   Among Japan’s 571 universities, Yokohama National University stands out as a public national university with a graduate-focused profile and a small published programme list. That makes it more suitable for applicants who already know the master’s field they want than for students looking for a wide choice of degree options.
