Most Similar Schools Locally
- The comparison with Saga University is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on astroscience, marine science and aerospace, and it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and has almost the same size, at about 7,000 students.
- In terms of fields, Shizuoka University is the nearest neighbour, with astroscience, aerospace and agriculture again at the core; it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
- Ibaraki University sits close to this university on astroscience, aerospace and agriculture; it has almost the same size, at about 7,000 students, and is also a public institution.
- Also strong in aerospace, agriculture and food science, Akita Prefectural University makes a sensible second look at home; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and is far smaller, with about 1,500 students against roughly 7,000 here.
- Among national alternatives, Yamagata University stands out for its focus on astroscience, aerospace and agriculture, and it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and is slightly larger, at about 9,000 students against roughly 7,000 here.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- For aerospace, agriculture and food science outside the home country, Hochschule Anhalt in Germany is a natural reference; it also offers mba programmes, and has almost the same size, at about 7,000 students.
- For a study option in Poland with a comparable spread of marine science, aerospace and agriculture, West Pomeranian University of Technology, Szczecin is the reference point: it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
- The closest overseas parallel on astroscience, aerospace and food science is University of Zielona Góra, located in Poland; it is slightly larger, at about 10,000 students against roughly 7,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- For food science, bioinformatics and microbiology and genetics outside the home country, Dalian Minzu University in China is a natural reference; it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
- Hochschule Kaiserslautern - University of Applied Sciences, based in Germany, is built around food science, transportations and bioinformatics much like this university, and it is also a public institution and does not run the doctoral programmes found here.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
