  • Background of the recruitment and description of the project

    TUJ offers undergraduate programs to a broad mix of over 2,200 Japanese and non-Japanese degree-seeking students who will earn their degrees from Temple University through the Japan campus.

    Based in one of the most dynamic cities in the world, we offer thirteen full undergraduate majors ranging from Art to International Business to Psychological Studies. Our faculty and staff is international, with 69 full time faculty joined by experienced administrators and many part-time adjunct faculty from the professions, business and the arts. TUJ holds classes on the U.S. academic calendar with 15-week fall and spring semesters, a well-enrolled 10-week summer semester, and a 3-week May session.
