Helping International Students Find English-Taught Undergraduate and Postgraduate Programs at Japanese Universities
Hokkaido University
Graduate School of Economics and Business
Doctoral Program
Successful students who completed a master’s program can progress to the Doctoral Program. As an independent researcher, the student in this program can conduct independent studies. The Doctoral Program is designed to develop personnel with advanced skills who can carry out research education at universities.
Because the student’s goal is to write the Ph.D thesis, the course work like the one for master students is not required. Instead, students can receive in-depth research guidance through seminars and workshops.
