The central purpose of universities in Japan is to provide students with wide-ranging knowledge and to conduct in-depth teaching and research in specialized academic disciplines. Generally a student needs to spend four years to earn a bachelor degree (six years for medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine).
A university in Japan may also establish a graduate school that can offer 2- year master degree courses, five-year doctoral courses (four years for medicine, dentistry and veterinarian medicine) or two-year professional degree courses.
However the university education in Japan is also facing some challenges mainly due to the declining rate of young population in the country. But this has increased the competitiveness among various universities of Japan and many of them are providing world-class facilities for attracting students. At present, there are more than 700 universities in Japan.
