Learn at tourism resorts, for battle-tested career development education

In April 2006, JIU established the Department of Wellness Tourism, in the Faculty of Tourism at Kamogawa city, Chiba, a year-round tourist resort destination in the southern part of Awa on the Chiba peninsula. Students at the campus learn about tourism in a natural site facing the Pacific Ocean. The Faculty of Tourism Studies offers internships at travel agencies, hotels, airlines, and airport-related companies, among others, where students can practice while learning about "wellness (mental and physical health)," and "hospitality (a welcoming spirit)". In addition, the Freshman and Sophomore classes have courses in language, communication, media, and risk management, to internalize business skills from an early stage. Furthermore, the department actively promotes overseas exchanges with affiliate universities overseas. These studies enable selection from a broad range of career paths, and not just tourism-related companies.
