Japanese Culture Program (Advanced, 1-year program)
In the Japanese Culture Program, the students study cultures of other countries from a cross-cultural viewpoint based on their own knowledge of Japanese culture in order to become truly cosmopolitan. They also study basic economics and basic business principles.
We offer a varied program with subjects in a wide range of departments. We also have field studies at companies, institutions, historic sites, and cultural assets.
Many of the subjects of the Japanese Culture Program are similar to subjects taken by Josai University students. After finishing the Course, some students can be given priority consideration for entrance into Josai University and Josai Junior College. Many of the students go on to graduate schools or employment in Japan or internationally.
