Long-term course enrollment system
Educational programs for working adults.
Two years' worth of study is completed in three years.
Those who wish to study in the field of practical nursing science and have been unable to complete the course for a certain period of time beyond the standard period of study due to employment or other circumstances.
This is a system that allows students to study for an extended period of time if they wish to complete the course of study in a planned manner.
*However, if you are accepted into a field other than nursing practice science due to multiple applications, the long-term course system will not apply.
When taking the entrance exam, you will need to apply as a long-term student.
- Recommended for:
-
- Employed people (regardless of whether they are employed full-time or part-time, and who depend on their income for a living)
- People who have given birth, are raising children or caring for the elderly, or have other unavoidable circumstances

Long-term Course Registration System | Messages from Graduate Students
Koki Tsuchiya
Graduated from Fujita Health University
By taking advantage of the long-term course enrollment system,
Research and learning at graduate school,
I am able to balance my work with working as a part-time practical Research Associate.
I decided to enroll in this graduate school because I wanted to do research to deepen my knowledge through my clinical experience. At the same time, I was thinking of working as a part-time Research Associate in a training program at another university, so by utilizing the long-term enrollment system, I was able to find an environment where I could do both. If you are thinking of continuing to graduate school while working, you may be worried about finding the time and balancing your studies, but the long-term enrollment system of this graduate school allows you to extend your period of enrollment to three years depending on the credits you have taken and the status of your master's thesis, so the hurdle to continuing to graduate school is lowered. Currently, I am studying social trends so that I can consider the social background of patients from all aspects and angles, and learning how I can give back to patients from my major field. In the future, I aim to be a nurse who can contribute to patients.
