Osaka University International Certificate Program (OUICP)

Osaka University International Certificate Program (OUICP) is an interactive, hybrid educational program consisting of both online and study abroad courses that makes effective use of UOsaka ASEAN Campuses. Carried out over the course of 9–10 months, OUICP (Outbound) sends UOsaka students to study at one of UOsaka ASEAN Campuses, while OUICP (Inbound) invites students from UOsaka ASEAN Campuses for a short-term study abroad experience at the University of Osaka. The University of Osaka issues a certificate upon successful completion of the program on a specific field with 6 to 8 credits.
