The International Affairs Division was established to NAIST's diverse, ever-growing international community. In order to offer a wider variety of services smoothly to international students and scholars, the international education staff was centralized in the division where they cooperate with the entire institute to effectively support our internationally-focused administration. Within the International Affairs Division is the International Affairs Section and the International Student Affairs Section. The Center for International Students and Scholars works directly with the Division to proactively support students and scholars throughout their lives at NAIST.
