(日本語訳は後述)

Rahmatuloev Khayyom (MEXT student from Tajikistan)              

I am a graduate student of Osaka School of International Public Policy. I am taking MA in International Public Policy on a scholarship by the Japanese Government (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology – MEXT).

The MEXT scholarship allowed me to choose a program and university to study in Japan. Considering all factors, which were important for me, I chose to study International Relations (IR) in OSIPP. Today, I am sure that I made right decision.

I chose Osaka University because I wanted to study in Kansai area while attending one of the best universities in Japan and the world. I like the Kansai region because of its history, cuisine, inspiring architecture, and accommodating locals. In addition, compared to other regions, Kansai offers lower cost of living.

I am interested in IR as it fits in perfectly with my career aims. I want to become a diplomat and work for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tajikistan.

I would say that the previous semesters I stayed in OSIPP is highly relevant to my personal goals. OSIPP is greatly helping me improve my knowledge and skills. OSIPP provides me access to academic facilities and lectures by world-renowned IR and related fields experts. Moreover, OSIPP has provided me with conducive learning environment such that I continue to be able to exchange ideas freely with Japanese and international students. My interactions with students from all over the world also provided me with insights that I would have missed had I not opted for an international academic institution like OSIPP.

Before applying to the Master’s program, I was a research student in Osaka University for one year. I had low level of Japanese language skills and was not familiar with all the administrative procedures. Fortunately, both Osaka University and OSIPP have excellent support services staff for international students. OSIPP staff members have helped and supported me a lot before and during my stay in the university.

As a research student, I took several Japanese language courses and participated in various interesting lectures. During my stay as a research student, I met and befriended fellow students who continue to make my stay in Japan more interesting and fun.

  私は日本政府による国費外国人留学生制度を利用して現在、大阪大学大学院国際公共政策研究科の修士課程で勉強しています。この制度を利用するにあたり、どの大学、どのプログラムで勉強するかを選択することができましたが、様々な要素を踏まえて私はここOSIPPにて国際関係論を学ぶことに決めました。今では、とても良い選択だったと確信しています。

 私は将来タジキスタンの外務省で働きたいと考えています。OSIPPでのここまでの学びはその目標を叶える上で大変有意義なものでした。OSIPPでは、最先端の国際関係論の授業を各分野の専門家の先生方から受けることができ、また日本や世界各国から集まってくる学生たちと意見を交わし合うことができる環境が整っています。こうした中で、単なる知識の向上だけでなく、他の場所では得られないような多様なものの考え方に触れることができた一年を過ごすことができました。

  私は、大阪大学において修士課程への進学前に研究生として一年を過ごしました。その間、修士課程への進学に向けて、日本語の勉強や日本の文化への理解をOSIPPのスタッフの方々からの様々なサポートを受けながら深めることができました。また、そこでできた友達は現在でも私の日本での生活をより楽しいものにしてくれています。
