I'm amazed an American hasn't answered this question, but from all reports I've ever heard Harvard University has a high standard of education - particularly in business studies.  Some of the top 500 entrepreneurs in the USA graduated from this establishment.  Certainly it would do you no hard whatsoever to have it recorded in your Curriculum Vitae (Resume).\n\nHarvard - founded on the 8th September 1636 - is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States and is a member of the Ivy League.  It is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  Their motto is VERITAS (truth).  You can view their web site at:\n\nhttp://www.harvard.edu\n\nAlso there is information on:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/harvard_university

YES!!! East Asian Studies is a great major. Japan and China are both East Asia, as well as the emerging power of South Korea. I highly reccomend you do it - but only if it really interests you. I also suggest that you choose a specific nation ( I recommend China) and learn the language. With those skills you will go far in the business world. You can work as an international liason or in a diplomatic post, or work for an international corporation as an interpreter or an executive. The sky is the limit!

As far Deemed universities are concerned, There is clearly no harm in getting a degre from such institutions. Just for example, two months before, Three students from SRM Deemed university, Chennai were selected for 1 year intensive training program conducted by a reputed company in Japan. Moreover these three students are already undergoing their training in Japan even before they have finished their degree. Hope u r now convinced.

There are many many options, most of which can be found on the web, most of which claim to be the best, most of which are dreadful.\n\nI think rosettastone is probably the best right now, as far as reviews go...\n\nhttp://www2.rosettastone.com/en/offer/overture\n\nIt's a little pricey but they do include Japanese. The link above will bring you to the current special offer.

It depends on what field you are looking for. In engineering Berkeley was rated as top university.  But I think overall Harvard is the best in the world.

Stephen K. Hayes used to have a dojo but that was a long time ago. Try GOOGLE. You'll probably have to go to Japan for that these days.

I believe you mean an online PhD. I take online classes with the University of Phoenix and highly recommend their program. You did not specify in what field you are interested. Get online with the University of Phoenix and see what is available from them.  Good luck in your pursuit.         Nettie 4614
