Tohoku University
Tohoku University, located in Sendai City, was founded in 1907 as Japan's third national university. It continues to be an innovative university committed to the principles of "Research First " and "Open Doors". It has long enjoyed the reputation of being one of the most liberal universities in the country as well as an institution that places a strong emphasis on leading-edge research.

Sendai
With a population of 1 million, Sendai (located around 300 km northeast of Tokyo -only 1.5 hours from Tokyo by "Shinkansen" bullet train) is the largest city in the Tohoku region. Combining the convenience of a modern city with abundant natural scenery, Sendai is often called "the City of Trees". Sendai is characterized by a very moderate climate, yet you can experience the beauty of the four seasons. Usually, only a few days in summer are hotter than 30 C (86 F), and few days in winter are colder than -3 C (26 F).
