What Is double degree?
The double degree program is a scheme whereby students can obtain degrees from both Keio University and its partner institutions upon completing a series of curricula prepared under an agreement between the respective universities. I believe that the double degree program plays an extremely important role in developing internationally-minded professionals, not only because it allows students to earn two degrees, but also because it enhances their understanding of their specialized field and different cultures. I encourage anyone who wants to be active on the world stage in the future to take on this challenge.
Overview
The Faculty of Business and Commerce offers a double-degree program with Peking University's Guanghua School of Management (hereafter referred to as Peking University) to develop talented professionals and leaders in an increasingly global society.
Since its establishment in 1898, Peking University has been one of Asia’s most prestigious universities and a symbol of modernization in China as a national key university.
Third-year undergraduate students selected for this program will study abroad for two years with other students from prestigious universities around the world at Peking University’s “Future Leaders” undergraduate double-degree program.
Students will be awarded a bachelor's degree from Peking University and Keio University, respectively, after this five-year program, one upon completion of their graduation thesis while studying abroad at Peking University and the other after receiving credit for their study abroad upon their return to Japan.
