Program Overview

Foods occupy an essential part of our life, and problems in food production directly threaten our life. That is why we think ethics, moral codes, advanced skills, and accurate knowledge in food production should spread across borders.

In this regard, we think it quite important for Toyo College of Food Technology to play a role in training international students from newly industrialized countries. It is also our great pleasure to advance scientific knowledge and technological skills through the international academic exchange.

Each year, we offer two programs, Short-term and Long-term International Student Program. Short-term program has two courses, Basic & Advanced Course per year. Basic Course will be held in Spring and Advanced Course will be held in Autumn each year. Considering the level of knowledge and skills offered through this program, international students are expected to choose either one of the two programs, Short-term or Long-term program.
