Points to Remember about Classroom Culture

"Common sense" in a classroom setting is very culturally based. Before attending class at Iwate University, please review the following issues in order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

Dress Code

There are basically no specific restrictions, but please keep in mind the following points on classroom manners.

  • Dress modestly (Ex: Avoid wearing dirty or over-revealing clothes, etc.)
  • Please remember that shirts and shoes are required at all times.
  • Avoid wearing low-cut clothes or those exposing your navel.

As tattoos are generally viewed negatively in Japan regardless of the design, we kindly request that you cover up any tattoos you may have. If you have any questions regarding this, please consult your supervisor.
