International College in Japan?

I have been looking at colleges to attend and since I would like to love and work in Japan I was also looking at International Univeristies in Japan but I need help. Are there and colleges in Japan that offer a Planetary Science/Astronomy major and the classes are taught in English since I don't know Japanese (but plan to double major in it)? I've tried looking on the websites of diffrent schools but I find them hard to navigate and find information on, and if I do find some it's only for Buisness or cultural studies.

    All Japanese colleges have classes in Japanese. The only exception is Temple University which is an American university.

    The story of ICU having all classes in English is false. They have only some classes in English. Not all. So you need to have Japanese skill after all.

    In Japan, colleges tend to teach in Japanese, unless it involves business or cultural studies. It's understandable then, that the only courses taught in English are probably not in the field of science. Not to mention, Japanese universities are extremely competitive, so you'd need to be a top student [able to pass a university entrance exam-- which is in Japanese] to even be accepted. You could do a study abroad where you can study in Japan for a semester, but you will not be getting a degree from the Japanese college itself.

    In short, there are no colleges in Japan that offer your desired major taught in the English language. It's best if you find a college in your home country with good Japanese and Astronomy majors and that has study abroad programs available to students.
