GREETINGS
Welcome to the website of the Graduate School of Humanities.
We would like to provide a simple introduction of this graduate school.
It began from the French and English Language and Literature majors, founded in 1982. Thereafter, other majors were added: History, Japanese Language and Literature, German Language and Literature, Socio-Cultural Studies, as well as Education and Clinical Psychology, resulting in the current seven majors.
At this graduate school, specializing in researching the humanities, the goal of our education and research is gaining a deep specialized knowledge of the various fields that aim to delve into human nature, nurturing students who will contribute to society.
The focus of the master’s program, as well as the first half of the doctoral program, is in nurturing high-level experts who can put their skills to sufficient use to meet society’s needs. The goal of the second half of the doctoral program is to cultivate individuals with a broad perspective who can achieve innovative and socially beneficial research in their respective specialized fields.
Our graduate school’s faculties have an exceptionally high level of research skill, and use in-depth personal guidance to draw out the potential of each staff within their teaching methods. The office staff’s detailed help is a strength of every student’s support.
In a questionnaire to students admitted in 2023, the presence of their desired fields, as well as the teaching faculties’ skill in both education and research, were both raised as points of appeal for this graduate school. Please look through our videos, as well as messages from both current students and alumni.
We hope, from the bottom of our hearts, to have an opportunity to learn together with you, and build the future of both people and society in the wide world of the humanities.
