Computer Science & IT Intern
Most CRCC Asia internships in Tokyo are designed for English-speaking participants, although learning basic Japanese can make daily life easier and help you connect more with the city.
Visa requirements depend on your nationality, program length and current Japanese immigration rules. CRCC Asia provides visa guidance where applicable, but students are responsible for meeting Japan’s entry requirements before travel.
Eligible students may also be able to earn academic credit for their Tokyo internship through CRCC Asia’s academic credit option. Credit transfer depends on your home university, so this should be confirmed before enrolling.
