Exploration & Dialogue: Education for Women as Leaders

Specific Efforts and Plan for eAttractive Education in Graduate Schoolsf

     The objectives of our program is to seek comprehensive, in-depth knowledge and insight (exploration) and to promote research cooperation as well as exchanges of achievements based on mutual understanding (dialogue), thereby fostering and producing young researchers and specialists in various fields, who will make female leaders with a global perspective in the future generation.  This program aims at@ in particular establishing gJapanese Studies in a Global Perspectiveh as a new cultural foundation with an international perspective by taking a cross-disciplinary approach to the various fields of study (namely, philosophy, history, ethics, religious studies, literature, cultural studies, music, costume aesthetics, and so on) on which we base our two academic majors, and transmitting this new area of study from Asia to the rest of the world.  It will naturally be expected that the program, organically coupled with the gender research and education that our university have been developing thus far, plans to foster capable young leaders and promote new forms of international cooperation as well as cultural exchange in order to realize international communities with true gender-equality.

     To achieve the goal, it proposes the following specific measures:
1. Considering studentsf prompt completion of doctoral dissertations to be most vital, we provide necessary measures.
2. We attempt to improve the level of researches in humanities, to globalize their educational opportunities and to expand the research activities to abroad.
3. We foster young leaders who can convey the idea of cultural foundation with an international perspective, using gJapanese Studies in a Global Perspectiveh as an educational and research base in Asia.
4. To lead the future research trends that will value diversity, we provide thorough instruction to students with implementation of Minor System.
5. By setting up gStudies of the Resources for Gender Equalityh and gCultural Management Studiesh as minor programs, we foster the human resources capable of contributing to the realization of international communities with gender equality and the specialists such as curators, the experts that are not yet trained in a doctoral course in this country.
6. We take measures for the development and endorsement of research abilities of students and for the development of teaching abilities of students.
