SMU campus
The city campus of SMU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Sapporo has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university students have access to the library. It is an integral part of learning. Students come here for educational literature or to do their homework. The exchange of intercultural experience occupies a special place in training at SMU. The educational institution regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs and organizes various joint events.
