Juntendo University is a multi-disciplinary university in Japan with a focus on medical research. The university  has campuses in Tokyo, Mishima, and two in the northern Chiba prefecture. 

The Juntendo University Main Hospital was founded in 1838, and was the first hospital in Japan to adopt Westernised medical practice. It’s prowess has continued over centuries, and was the first Japanese medical facility to be awarded accreditation by the Joint Commission International, an American not-for-profit organisation that assesses safety and quality care standards.

As well as its scientific base, Juntendo has an established Faculty of International Arts offering undergraduate courses. The faculty offers a summer programme in which students wishing to visit the nation may spend a short time in Tokyo to experience Japanese culture and language.
