How can I study at a university in Japan?

Where in Japan and at what university in Japan should I study?

• I want to study computer science, robotics engineering, or aerospace engineering as well as Japanese. I am currently a junior in high school so I have some time. I am American which is good in some respects with the campaign for 300,000 students. Which university is best for me to study in Japan? Once I graduate high school, I will already have had 2 years of Japanese.
