Faculty of Business Administration

Yokohama National University's Faculty of Business Administration was established in 1967, and currently composed of 4 disciplinary areas: the Division of Business Administration, the Division of Accounting and Information, the Division of Management System Science and the Division of International Business. The faculty places emphasis on internationalization, with not only Japanese students, but also many students from overseas currently enrolled. Students are free to register subjects outside of their own division, and so are able to gain an education that covers all aspects of business administration. In the latter half of second year, students are assigned to a seminar, where they do research in a specialized area of an advising professor. Possibly as an effect of this, after graduation, students move on to become future business leaders of major Japanese corporations, public servants, certified public accountants, and postgraduate students; they are able to choose a career path that conforms to their ambitions.
