University of Wolverhampton International MBA
An International MBA from a British university with origins in 1827.
While working, from Japan.
Learning is completed online. Graduation — in Britain too, if you wish.
From a society of credentials, to a society of learning.
And into an era where the language of learning is yours to choose.
A British university with origins in 1827 ｜ Recognised in UK law as a degree-awarding institution (a Recognised Body) ｜Registered with the Office for Students (OfS)
The language of learning is yours to choose.
Learning that thinks deeply in your mother tongue reaches a depth of thought that only your mother tongue can reach. Learning that touches the world directly in English opens a reach that only English can open.
Neither stands above the other. Depth and reach — not a ranking, but a choice of character: what do you seek, now?
We at Shibuya Web3 University also run a road for learning deeply in Japanese. And this programme is the road for those who choose to take on the challenge in English.
A door that opens only for those who choose English.
Search in English, and the amount of information within your reach changes. The primary sources of world management — the newest research, new theory, the debates of the world's leaders — are born in English first, and keep accumulating in English. Without waiting for someone's summary or translation, you go to the original, and judge for yourself. That circuit opens inside you.
Read papers the way you read a newspaper. Touch the world's debates without a time lag. Think in English, and write it through in English. The wall is real. We will not make light of how hard it is to take on a master's in a language not your own. But for every measure of that hardness, a world opens. This road is for those whose eyes turn there.
And one more thing — before any reasoning: "I want to try it in English." If that feeling is there, it is enough.
A challenge needs no justification. The voice that says "I want to try" is already your answer.
An MBA is a process: thinking, writing and questioning in the same language as the world.
We do not think of the MBA as a title. It is a process of answering world-standard questions with everything you have — your experience, and your intelligence.
Read in English. Think in English. Build your own argument by the rules of academic referencing. And at the end, answer the question you chose, with a single dissertation. What remains in the person who runs this process through is not just a certificate. The habit of going straight to the world's knowledge. The intellectual stamina to stand in the same language as the world. And your own limits — redrawn.
The degree is handed to you at the end: proof, that stands anywhere in the world, that you ran the process through.
The will to try was always there. The path was not.
Japanese business leaders who wanted to take on world-standard learning in English have always been around us. Yet many of them stopped before they could even begin. Not for lack of will or ability — but because no one had ever handed them the foundation, and the support alongside them, to study and finish in a language not their own.
The rules of referencing. The habit of reading academic papers. The form of writing to a world standard. This foundation — taken for granted in the academic world — is one that Japanese businesspeople have built whole careers without ever having the chance to learn. Without the foundation, the challenge ends at the wall. With the foundation, the same wall becomes a wall that can be climbed.
So we built the path. On a British university and a British progression route, a road where the foundation is trained in Japanese — with support alongside every learner, built in from the start. To design the road that carries the voice that says "I want to try" all the way to the finish: that is why Shibuya Web3 University Co., Ltd. runs the Japan pathway to this programme. That is our Why.
To make sure "there is no path" is never again the reason someone gives up.
This is not a programme you study alone.
The curriculum is delivered entirely in English. The materials, the assignments, the dissertation. To think in the same language as the world, and write it through — beyond that challenge stands this degree.
And on that ground, Shibuya Web3 University builds the foundation of your learning — in Japanese. Harvard-style referencing. The habit of reading academic papers through library databases. The form of academic writing at a world standard. The academic disciplines that Japanese businesspeople have rarely had the chance to touch — trained until they become habit.
Our Japanese-language support does not touch the content of your learning itself. Precisely because it does not, the value of your degree is protected.
Assignments and the dissertation are yours to complete, with your own strength. What we train is the foundation, and the habits, to carry them through. That is why, when you finish, the strength remains in you — as the real thing.
There is no fixed timetable, and no fixed lecture hours. Rather than stopping your reality for the sake of learning, you build learning into the middle of your reality. Then — can you keep going, alone? We designed for that worry, too. There is a dedicated tutor for every student. The channel is WhatsApp. In your pocket, at any hour, someone to run alongside you. That is how this learning works.
And as a master's for the age of generative AI, we also give lectures — outside the curriculum — on putting generative AI to work in your learning. We treat generative AI not as a replacement, but as a co-pilot that accelerates learning. Searching the literature, structuring information, studying English expression — leave that pre-processing to AI, and concentrate on what only a human can do: raising the question, thinking it into your own company, making the judgement. Time compresses; thinking deepens. This is the philosophy of learning that Shibuya Web3 University — which has kept taking on the social implementation of technology — carries through every programme it runs.
None of this is for having AI write your assignments or your dissertation. Master the co-pilot — and keep your own hands on the controls. It is because you write it through in your own words that the degree remains as your own strength.
Facts that do not move.
The degree is awarded by the University of Wolverhampton, a British university with origins in 1827 — recognised in UK law as a degree-awarding institution (a Recognised Body) and registered with the Office for Students (OfS), the regulator of higher education.

The degree conferred on completion: International Master of Business Administration. Within fifteen months in all — designed so that working professionals can finish.
And, should you wish, the annual graduation ceremony on campus in Britain. Graduation — in Britain too, if you wish.

Start from where you stand.
The individual consultation begins with the reality you want to change. We will talk, frankly, about whether the design of this programme engages with that challenge. You can decide after that.
What we ask about in the consultation is not the lines of your CV, but the reality you want to change.
