People in their second year of undergraduate studies and above, as well as graduate students, are also members.\n\n**Procedure to join**：\n① Attend information sessions at universities and symposiums during the beginning of April. \n②Apply for the interview and submit the application documents.\n③Interviews are held on the weekends of the third and fourth week of “ ADD A MONTH NAME” \n④Acceptance notification in April (first half of Golden Week)\n⑤Welcome Party in May\n(Autumn Recruitment・Year round selection also conducted)\n\n※The year round selection has a stricter recruitment standard as compared to the Spring・Autumn Recruitment. Members who apply through the year round selection must start a project as soon as they join Bizjapan. ","The schedule below is the annual schedule, however last year, due to COVID, the Welcome Camp and the Spring Camp were not held.\n\nApril: Spring Recruitment・Interview・Acceptance Notification\nStart of May: Welcome Party (Friday Gatherings start the week after)\nMid-May: Welcome Camp. Main activities are the workshop and exchange among members (activities change every year)\nMay: Project Pitch ※1\nEnd of May to Mid-July: Work on projects until Final Exams \nStart of August: Summer Camp (Aim is to get to know each other and OBOGs come sometimes too)\nSummer Vacation: Up to the members whether they want to do projects or not!

Every year, around ten ideas come up. Project members are recruited around a week after the ideas are announced. \n※2　Time for members to speak about what they did in the summer break. Also, it is a time to create an atmosphere to make it easy for those members who weren’t able to participate actively in spring to be able to do so from autumn again.\n※3 An event where OB・OGs are also invited. In the past, the founder, Mr Sho Hayashi and Professor Shigeo Kagami, the head of the Office of Strategic Research Alliance of the Division of University Corporate Relations, the University of Tokyo, held a panel discussion. Please refer to Bizjapan’s Note for details.\n","・You can meet a lot of people with diverse value sets.\n・It is an environment that encourages challenges.\n・It is a community that makes you feel at home, where you can come back to at any time.\n・Apart from the FG, there are no compulsory activities. Thus, it is easy to balance Bizjapan with other activities and commit in the way you want.\n・You can get information about interesting events and internships from OB・OGs, organizations, companies, and professors who have close ties with Bizjapan, \n・There are many people who can speak English, so it is easy for international students who don’t speak much Japanese to get involved.\n","・Since there are no fixed objectives, if a member does not act by themselves then one year passes by without achieving anything. Bizjapan is not an organization where one can get something just by waiting. The ideal way to participate is by utilising resources and chances offered by Bizjapan to the maximum.\n・There is so much information coming in (although that is one of the benefits) that it is difficult to catch up.\n・The management of projects requires enthusiasm as well as planning ability, so it is quite difficult. However, there is a sense of self-worth and happiness once projects materialise.\n","**Usual Activities**\n・Friday Gathering (FG) once a week\n・Activities of each project: Differs according to the objectives of each person. There are cases where meetings are held 1-2 times a week, apart from the Friday Gathering. Also, Bizjapan is one of the first organizations in Japan to have introduced Slack in its activities, beginning a few years back.","**Number of Members**\nFirst-year students: around 30\nSecond-year students: around 20\n\n**Grade Composition of Members**\nMainly first and second-year students, but there are some graduate students\n\n**Grade Composition of the Administration Team**\nSecond-year students (starting from January of their first year)\n\n**Gender Ratio (Male:Female)**\nAround 1:1\n\n**Period of Entry**\nSpring recruitment: Around 30 members\nAutumn recruitment: Around 10 members\nYear-Around recruitment: Around 2-3 members\n\n**Features of membership**\n・Students are mainly from UTokyo, International Christian University, Waseda, Keio, but there are many members from other universities as well, including Hitotsubashi University, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Sophia University, Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, and universities abroad.\n・No restrictions on department/major, undergraduate/postgraduate, nationality, etc...\n・More members studying natural sciences (Rikei) students as compared to other international circles.\n・There are many active students who have studied abroad, lived abroad, or participated in various extracurricular activities up until high school. (However, those without any previous experience can expand their own potential here)\n・Many members tend to have a wide range of interests and they take on many challenges.\n\n**Withdrawal Rate**\nInitially, around 30 members join, yet we tend to see a decline in participation from about a third of the members (subject to change every year). Instead of withdrawing completely, many members focus mainly on their projects after finding what they really want to do.","March 25: UT-BASE Joint Information Session of International Oriented Organizations\nApril 1: BizjapanxHCAP Joint Information Session\nApril 3: Bizjapan Solo Information Session・Consultation Session\nApril 4: UT-BASE Online Joint Information Session\nApril 7: Bizjapan Solo Information Session・Consultation Session\nApril 24: Deadline for the application form\nMay 2: Interviews\nMay 8: Result Notification\nMay 14: Welcome Party","https://www.instagram.com/bizjapan.gram/","Entrepreneurship, Global, Community, Intercollegiate, Projects, International exchange, UT-BASE English\n","[Click here for the schedule of orientation](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Aycqtlgmb1loncKV8VlLUkg4EQhuIVL0/view?usp=sharing)\n![](/uploads/embedded/gyazo/0cf102656d3f5ff7c075bf6721cd18f8.jpg)\n![](/uploads/embedded/gyazo/f4827df41aa4551770941a7b73daa55b.jpg)\n![](/uploads/embedded/gyazo/b8bb0307fd15ec7056da89577f8357d0.png)\n![](/uploads/embedded/gyazo/cda4308cbc7e11ee6277452b196b49a2.jpg)","インカレ","**Grade Composition of the Administration Team**\nGrade Composition of the Administration Team\nSecond-year students (starting from January of their first year)\n\n**Structure of Administration**\nThe structure of administration is quite flexible, with the number of admins changing year to year.
