Hello, I'm a 4th-year biomedical design engineering student(Gajin), and I want to intern at a Japanese biomedical firm starting from May next year.
My Japanese skills are non-existent, but I have some experience in the field. I know some people who got to intern in Japan as Gajins but not in the biomed field tho.
I asked my Japanese teacher to help me get in touch with some of the companies below, but she told me that they don't take in international students.

There are no good biomedical firms in my country
The most cutting-edge biomed firms are in Japan, the US and the EU. and getting a Japanese visa is far easier when compared to EU or the US
