What is Faculty of Humanities?
Learn the culture and language of each region to gain a multifaceted perspective and the ability to spread your wings and fly out into the world.
In modern society, where people, goods, and information flow across borders, globalization brings prosperity but also causes conflicts and frictions. To solve these problems, it is necessary to respect each other's cultures and continuously strive for coexistence.
Faculty of Humanities 's learning, which values dialogue with different cultures, provides the education and intelligence to comprehensively understand "why and how history moves and culture has taken root" as a single story, enabling correct perception of contemporary culture and society and the ability to solve problems. Dialogue with different cultures begins with an interest in various cultures. At Faculty of Humanities, our primary goal is to understand the cultures of English-speaking countries, Europe, Japan, and East Asia, and to reliably acquire the languages of the target regions. That's why we encourage both short- and long-term study abroad to learn the culture and language locally. Additionally, two new global programs are intensive training programs that further enhance the Faculty of Humanities efforts so far. What we want you to acquire is the power to soar around the world as global citizens.

Characteristics of the Faculty of Humanities
Supporting students with a comprehensive study abroad program that allows you to learn about local culture from multiple angles
Through learning in a wide range of fields such as language, literature, history, folklore, thought, art, and society, students develop understanding, empathy, and solidarity with different cultures. We also offer a variety of short- and long-term study abroad programs. Interaction with international students is also active.
The Faculty of Faculty of Humanities also offers career-oriented learning
We also recommend taking Teacher Training Course and Curator Training Course courses. Related Courses are placed in the Specialized Courses of the departments to facilitate the academic learning of the curriculum. There is also a "Japanese Teacher Program" to develop the ability to teach Japanese to foreigners. Studies in languages, literature, history, and art are also linked to licenses and qualifications that support career development.
Global Humanities (GH) Learning Across Departments
In addition to the 'Introduction to Humanities' (compulsory), students can take courses such as the 'Japanese Language Workshop,' GH lecture courses, and joint GH seminars among the three departments, as well as opportunities for interaction with students from other departments. To obtain a certificate, you need to write your graduation thesis in a foreign language or use foreign literature and write your abstract in that language.
