Ehime University

Ehime University is located in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture. Matsuyama city is the largest city on the island of Shikoku.

Matsuyama is on a plain so it is very easy to get around by bicycle - transportation is free. Housing rates are one of the lowest in Japan and other everyday expenses are low.

You can walk from the main campus to the city center in less than 15 minutes. The Faculty of Agriculture is just a 15-minute bicycle ride from the main campus.
