Description : Shizuoka is Omaha’s oldest sister city, and the two have a longstanding relationship of cultural exchange. Shizuoka is in the center of Japan, surrounded by a variety of natural landscapes, and offers the ideal setting for culture and language immersion. Public transportation in Japan is among the best in the world, and the country is safe, clean, and welcoming. Shizuoka University is UNO's longest running bilateral exchange partner, with over 4 decades of friendship. The exchange at Shizuoka University is available for a full year and is ideal for students who have completed at least one year of Japanese, preferably two years by the time of departure. UNO students are expected to use Japanese for the duration of their stay. In addition to decades of year-long student exchange, UNO and Shizuoka University have offered one another special summer tours to send and receive students for shorter periods of immersion.
