    Post-study work rights

    Japan does not have a US-style OPT/STEM-OPT or UK Graduate Route for international students; post-study employment requires a status-of-residence change to a work-authorized status (e.g., Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services) rather than a predefined visa duration tied to the program.
