University Exchange Agreements
Osaka University has completed academic exchange agreements with a large number of universities in other countries and regions. These academic exchange agreements have been concluded on the university-to-university level and also on the school-to-school level. Joint research as well as researcher and student exchanges take place between Osaka University and these universities and schools. At certain of these, it is possible for undergraduate and graduate students to take classes and/or engage in research for up to one year without paying tuition to that university or school while retaining their enrollment status at their home university.

November 2015: New Double Degree with Malaya University
The Graduate School of Science, Osaka University, has successfully signed a Double Degree Program (DDP) with Malaya University’s Graduate School of Science.
The Double Degree Program covers both Master and Doctor students, in all departments of the Graduate School of Science. The visitors, including the Dean of the Faculty of Science and the Head of the Department of Physics, were very eager to conclude the agreement since some students in Kuala Lumpur were keen to start their applications.

February 2015: Institut Teknologi Bandung/Osaka University Agreement
Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB, Indonesia) and Osaka University have signed an agreement that establishes a Double-Degree Program (DDP) for both Master and Ph.D. students of the two institutions. Excellent students who join the program will study and conduct research in both universities.
