The International Summer Program was inaugurated to bring together students and researchers from around the world, with a special emphasis on inviting students and young researchers from Asia. A select number of invitees are sponsored by the school.

The ISP has two components, a Lecture Course and an International Symposium. The Lecture Course features lectures by researchers from abroad and from Japan, poster sessions and panel discussions with students from Asia. The International Symposium component features current research-oriented presentations from invited researchers and TMDU professors. Participants also have an opportunity to visit labs of professors at TMDU.
