They are Japan's top-notch national universities — University of Tokyo (ranked 19th), Kyoto University (29th) and Osaka University (70th). None of the country's venerable and highly prestigious private universities, including Keio and Waseda, made the top 100.
American universities dominate the rankings — 11 out of the top 20 and 33 out of the top 100. More alarming is that five Chinese universities are in the top 100, with Beijing University ranked 14th.
The Japanese education system is too rigid to adapt to change and the needs of the times,it relies on rote memorization.Japanese youth ( house hermits = hikikomori ) are becoming less outgoing and losing the spirit of seeking a challenge. Japan and its people could be isolated from the rest of the world if this trend prevails.
