Iwate University (Morioka, Japan)

While Iwate University is in an urban area around two kilometres north of Morioka Station, the campus resembles an expansive natural park surrounded by greenery. It hosts four faculties and education and research support facilities.

Take one step outside the university and you will almost immediately find Takamatsu Pond and a place for residents to relax and enjoy themselves throughout the four seasons; not much further away are Koiwai Farm and Lake Gosho.

As is well known, this prefecture offers a magnificent natural world, including Rikuchu Kaigan National Park, Mount Iwate, and Hachimantai, and gorgeous cultural heritage, with Hiraizumi at the top of the list. This area, a deep pocket of Iwate's nature and culture with its warm people, is an optimum environment in which to live a student life.
