Explore our partnerships in Japan
Curtin works with universities and partner organisations across Japan to strengthen Australia–Japan connections through inbound visits, staff exchange opportunities and forums that encourage collaboration and knowledge exchange.
These partnerships expand opportunities for students and staff in both countries and support high-quality teaching and impactful research.

In October 2022, Curtin University joined the Hasekura League, a consortium of universities for the promotion of Japanese studies.

The league meets regularly in Japan and at members’ institutions for symposia and workshops.
