As a co-op member, you are also able to influence your co-op activities in many different ways. For example, by joining Student Committee or Foreign Student Committee, you are able to participate in the development of our activities and improving our services.
Students and faculty staff become members by paying a one-time investment fund (share) and they can use co-op stores and services afterwards. The amount of investment fund varies from one co-op to another, ranging from 5,000 to 20,000 yen, which will be fully refunded upon graduation or withdrawal from the university.
Co-op members are also the owners, which means that they can participate in the decision making process. Once a year, members attend the annual general meeting, approve the annual budget and financial statements, and elect board of directors and supervisors.
