January 10, 2026, CLIL Conference of Higher Education at Rikkyo University

Building 11 and 10 from 10 am to 6 pm plus Konshinkai to 9 pm

Found out that most of the speakers use the word EMI instead of CLIL.

They were Sophia, ICU, Rikkyo, etc. teaching their courses in " English as Means of Instruction", expanding in the world with Oxford University interest and methods.

CLIL to them is the institution concentrate more in the English instructions in their content courses whereas EMI concentrate on the content and the level of English they have is quite different.

This will give a difference between international schools teaching by the local institutions over so called the "international schools run by the global instructions", like in Japan locally you start from April, but so called "Global international schools" (in Japan the schools belong to Kanto Plains Sports Activities and members of "East Asian/Japan Association of International Schools" where they start their schools in September (Fall).

UCU has 500 Japanese/April students, 250 September students of Returnees and international school students and 180 foreign students (RYUGAKUSEI). They were always the top and leading "international university" in Japan from 1950's.

You can have IB schools of Japanese school system or of international schools, but that does not affect the cultural side of international education or "EMI" style instructions that is spreading very recently among international universities and schools.
