20-week Study Exchange Programme at IPU New Zealand, Okayama, Japan
International Pacific University (IPU) was established in 2007 in Okayama city, western Japan. The Faculty of Sustainable Education for Future Generations is the first of its kind in Japan, and the Faculty of Physical Education has highly qualified academic staff and leading sports instructors who are former or present top athletes. Through both academic and sports activities, IPU New Zealand's educational aim is to train teachers and instructors of sound and mature character, who will be in demand for future generations.
The IPU New Zealand-IPU Study Exchange Programme is an option for students in their
second or third year of study at IPU New Zealand. During the 20-week exchange
