I chose Kokushikan University not only because I wanted to study business administration, in which I am very interested, but also because it provides an environment where I can practice Aikido. A teacher at my Japanese school recommended Kokushikan University as a place where students can both pursue academic studies and learn martial arts.

At present I have been studying business administration in the Faculty of Political Science and Economics. Thanks to my teachers’ enthusiastic instruction, I was able to win the university speech competition. My future goal is to make use of what I have learned here to establish a trading company in which Indians can work together with Japanese to form a bridge between our two countries. In addition to Japanese, I have also been studying Chinese in order to discover even more possibilities for the future. At Kokushikan University, I have many opportunities to meet and become friends not only with Japanese students but with overseas students from various countries. I place importance on these friendships made at university and hope they will lead to partnerships in the future.
