Hey guys.
27 years old, male, Swedish, 6.5 years experience in IT, no degree.
Looking to get to Japan to work, and as such I've been looking at Universities. I've never been to one and think it could be an amazing experience.
So far I've considered either Liberal arts/Japanese Studies/Engineering. Engineering being the obvious choice, it doesn't start until October 2018, while the rest start April and are at some pretty fancy Universities.
Say that I get a Japanese studies/Liberal arts degree at Meiji/Sophia or Uni of equal rank, what are my prospects of getting a TECH job after graduating? I would be drawing on my experience obviously rather than my degree. The degree being mostly to satisfy visa requirements as I understand it.
Also, will I have a good time at all at 27-28 when starting University? I'd be older than the average for sure. But how would that affect me socializing with the rest of the students? Not sure how Japan society would handle something like that.
Thanks!
