Welcome to Kyoto
Welcome to Doshisha
Kyoto is called “the capital of a thousand years” with its long
history since the 8th century. While the city has been preserving
and passing down its history and tradition, its open andprogressive environment has also nurtured innovative people andindustries. Since its establishment in Kyoto in 1875 by Joseph
Hardy Neesima, Doshisha has been committed to upholding its
founder’s spirit as well as to upgrading itself with the up-todate educational programs and leading-edge academic research.
Respecting the tradition and at the same time continuously
developing to be at the forefront of the time. This is what makes
Doshisha University’s location in Kyoto meaningful, and we hope
you will visit us to experience the city and the university.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENTTHE SPIRIT OF DOSHISHA UNIVERSITY

Christian Principles

EducationofConscience

Neesima was so impressed by the effects of science and Christianity on American society that
he became convinced of the necessity of establishing an institution of higher learning in his
homeland based on an awareness of Christian principles. Accordingly, he returned to Japan
in 1874, which had just started on the path to a modern state, and established Doshisha
Eigakko in Kyoto in 1875.
That was the start of Doshisha University. Since then, we have been upholding the threefundamental educational ideals of Christian principles, liberalism, and internationalism for
more than 130 years. Neesima’s thinking about education is encapsulated in the simple words
engraved on the memorial monument at the main gate of Imadegawa campus, which reads: “Iearnestly desire that many young people filled with conscience will be raised and sent out by
our school.”
As our history shows, “international exchanges” and “internationalization” have always been
two of our most important pursuits. Our aim is to realize “internationalism” in a way thatmeets the demands of modern society and to make our university an international education
and research hub. In line with this, the Global MBA Course was established in September
2009, followed by the International Science and Technology Course in September 2010. Most
recently, the Faculty of Global Communications and the Institute for International Education
opened their doors to students from April 2011.
In order to provide quality education and stimulate the flow of students and researchers
both to and from the rest of the world, Doshisha University is committed to fulfilling
the responsibilities and mission that we have already undertaken, and to taking further
international initiatives in the future.

THE SPIRIT OF DOSHISHA UNIVERSITYMESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Doshisha University was founded in 1875 by Joseph Hardy Neesima. He defied an overseas
travel ban during the last turbulent days of the Tokugawa shogunate in order to come to
the United States, where he studied for ten years at several institutions, including Philips
Academy and Amherst College.

Liberalism

committed to the idea of “education of conscience,” ornurturing “those who use their abilities as conscience
dictates.” University founder Joseph Hardy Neesima’s
educational philosophy is encapsulated in the words
engraved on the memorial monument at the maingate of Imadegawa and Kyotanabe campuses, which
read, “I earnestly desire that many young people filledwith conscience will be raised and sent out by ourschool.” Doshisha has indeed sent many promising
graduates out into the world since its Neesima’stime. The spiritual pillars of our educational
activities: “Christian principles,” “liberalism,” and“internationalism” reflect this background.

School of Theology

Faculty of Social Studies

Faculty of Economics

Faculty of Policy Studies

Since its foundation in 1875 the School of Theology has
established itself as a pioneer in the field of Christian theology inJapan where the number of institutions that offer opportunities
to study religions academically is limited. A thorough studyof religions leads to a deeper and more comprehensive
understanding of human beings and their society, culture, andhistory.

Social Studies is concerned with how our everyday life isaffected by our environment and the ties we create with it. The
Faculty of Social Studies encourages students to pursue issues
related to contemporary society and to foster an understandingof the processes that shape social networks, communities andinstitutions in an increasingly globalized world. Social Studies
cover the whole range of human behaviour ranging from regional
conflicts, labour alienation and unemployment to changing
notions of the family, the aging society and the welfare state. The
Faculty is broad-based and offers majors in five areas: Sociology,
Social Welfare, Media, Journalism and Communications,
Industrial Relations, Education and Culture. A course in Social
Studies will enable students to use a broad range of analytical
tools and to think critically about contemporary social problems
in a stimulating setting. We place emphasis on instruction insmall groups and personal guidance by both Faculty members
and student tutors. Both theoretical training and practicalexperience are creatively combined to create a holistic learning
experience. Whether fieldwork, social surveys or quantitative
analysis, our graduates will have acquired the skills to conduct
successful inquiries into the nature of society from a humanistic
point of view.

Department of Economics envisions a learning community dedicatedto empowering its students to improving economic competitiveness,advancing social justice, reducing poverty, celebrating creativity
and artistic expression. These envisions are realized throughthe education which is facilitated to acquaint students with theeconomic aspects of modern society, to familiarize them withtechniques for the analysis of contemporary economic problems andto develop in them an ability to exercise judgment in evaluating
public policy.

The Faculty of Policy Studies seeks to foster resourceful andambitious students who are capable of resolving local as well as
global issues. Such talents with diverse perspectives are in highdemand throughout all domains of our society.

Since 2003 the School of Theology has been vigorously promotinginterdisciplinary studies of the three monotheistic religions:
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Followers in Judaism,
Christianity, or Islam together make up 55 percent of the total
population in the world. In order to understand the current
situation of the world, it is essential to gain a clear knowledge ofthese Abrahamic religions. The School of Theology aims to play arole as "mediator" in achieving peace and mutual understanding
between the world's regions and civilizations.

The School of Theology has fostered numerous "specialists inChristianity," including ministers, teachers, social workers andcounselors working at hospitals and welfare facilities.

The main educational vehicle which improves the logical andanalytical ability of student is “Project oriented seminar”. In thissubject, students collect materials, analyze data, build theoreticalmodel, and discuss the issues in a small size group. Through theintensive education in a small size class, the interactive learning
between the professors and students are stimulated effectively,
and students are trained to achieve the purpose of the project. In
addition, advanced level of IT skill can be mastered through thesophisticated IT curriculums.

Our program provides theoretical backbone and analyticalpractice through a wide range of lectures and classes, which
consolidate economics, law, organizational theory, and politics
and public administration. The students are expected to broaden
their perspectives starting from introductory courses to further
specialized subjects. Our small-scale classes, starting in the firstyear, provide opportunity to practice debates and problem-solving
exercises, thereby focusing on some social issues.

To Be an Intelligent Decision-maker in Private andPublic Sectors
It is the skills they can develop throughout our program – providing
solutions to problems with balanced points of view – that help
students play a leading role in such areas as business, journalism,
NPO/NGOs, politics and public administration. The Faculty of
Policy Studies will be the perfect choice for those who are willing to
expand their fields of interests, acquire practical skills in analyzingsocial issues, and contribute to solving various problems in oursociety.

Faculty of Letters

Faculty of Law

Faculty of Commerce

Faculty of Culture and Information Science

The ever-changing society is in essence formed by human beings.
With the deep understanding of humanity, one can live in thesociety with confidence, however drastically it may change. The
Faculty of Letters explores such human activities as languages,
cultures, philosophy, and history.

The goal of the Faculty of Law is to equip students with theability to identify problems in various social spheres andprovide adequate solutions based on the concept of the “legalmind” essential to solving problems with sound judgment anda sense of fairness. The Faculty’s education provides students
with a broad-ranging and highly relevant qualification thatwill prove invaluable for professional careers in many different
fields.

The Faculty of Commerce aims to produce graduates who
have acquired: basic knowledge of industrial and economic
issues and activities; the ability to analyze issues associatedwith enterprise and industry; and effective problem solving
and decision-making skills. We seek to achieve theseaims by providing systematic educational policy on ourareas of expertise including commerce, finance, businessadministration, accounting, and economics. Students are to
take foundational classes in basic subjects in their first year
and advanced classes in core subjects starting in their second
year. In the spring term of their second year, students canselect two core-subject clusters from a choice of five, dependingon their individual educational goals. From that point forward,
they strive to improve their specialist knowledge throughthe organized study of a broad variety of subjects (including
subjects outside their chosen clusters) albeit with emphasison their chosen clusters. In addition, new subjects withfresh content are introduced from time to time in responseto changing trends and expectations. Special features ofthe faculty are: classes offering firsthand experience on theforefronts of the business scene; an emphasis on the ‘first-year
experience’ that stimulates the desire to learn; support for
students seeking careers as business professionals.

The Faculty of Culture and Information Science aims at fostering
specialists who can comprehend and analyze the increasingly
complicated human beings and their world with scientificresearch methods. We welcome young talents from all over
the world who share with us our academic discipline: in-depth
understanding of various cultures, logical and critical thinking,and such scientific skills and abilities as statistics-oriented
analyzing methods and computer sciences. We provide lecturesfrom four different academic fields, namely, culture, linguistics,
human behavior, and human society. At the same time, students
are asked to acquire the knowledge and the skills in the fields
of mathematics, statistics, and computer science. With theseskills and newly developed interests in various aspects ofculture, students participate in our “Joint Research” program in
their third academic year and practice their research methods
and skills before they engage in the graduation researches intheir final academic year. We are proud of generating highlyskilled talent with wide cultural knowledge who will lead theadvancement of the globalized world in the spheres of academics,
media, business, IT industry among others.

The Faculty of Letters consists of five departments: English,
Philosophy, Aesthetics and Art Theory, Cultural History, andJapanese Literature. All the subjects offered at the faculty arefor students to seek the meaning and values of humanities. Eachof the five departments, with its own specific conception andmethodology, seeks the answers to one common fundamental
question—“What does being a human mean?”
The philosophy of Joseph Hardy Neesima, who said “Treasureeach and every person,” is alive and active in the small-sizedclasses and seminars at the Faculty of Letters. The highly
productive learning environment of the small-sized classes
and seminars, which have a capacity of ten to twenty students,
promotes close interactions among students and between
students and teachers.
In addition to their major subjects, students can intensively study
subjects from different departments by registering in the Minor
Degree program. The program will further deepen students’ fieldof specialty, as well as open the door to new scholarly realms thatthey have hitherto not considered.

The Faculty consists of the Department of Law and theDepartment of Political Science. The main characteristicof the curriculum of the Department of Law is the “step-up
system,” in which students take introductory subjects, basic
subjects, and advanced subjects, step by step. The advanced
subjects cluster offers a choice of fourteen packages, enabling
students to acquire specialized knowledge according to theirindividual interests and career options.
The curriculum of the Department of Political Science isalso based on the “step-up system.” Students have a choiceof three core-course advanced subject areas: International
Relations, Modern Political Science, and History and Thought.
By choosing one of the three subject areas, students can
assimilate advanced specialist knowledge in step with theirown personal interests and with their future careers in mind.

UNDERGRADUATE COURSESUNDERGRADUATE COURSESAt the School of Theology the number of compulsory courses isreduced to a minimum so that the students can freely assemble
their own curriculum depending on their concerns. The students
can also improve their linguistic ability needed to study the three
Semitic religions such as Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and Arabic.

Strengths in the department include macroeconomics,
microeconomics theory, econometrics, environmental economics,
public economics, cultural economics, institutional economics,
economic history, development economics, game theory, industrialorganization, international trade and finance, labor economics.
Main body of our research is the application of frontier theoreticaland quantitative tools to the analysis of important practical issues.

Faculty of Science and Engineering
To meet societal needs, the Faculty of Science and Engineering
provides “education of conscience,” in accord with our basic
philosophy of “using science and technology to benefit the people.”
We believe that a high standard of ethics and a strong senseof humanity are essential for correctly grasping the problems
that confront society today, and for responding appropriately totechnological advances and changing needs. The Faculty offersa broad variety of subjects in natural and human sciences andother fields, in addition to specialized subjects. Our curriculum
is designed to encourage student individuality and impart a
multilateral perspective.
Another major focus of our curriculum is to strengthen students’
academic foundations. We provide small classes to ensure that,while developing individual character and basic competences,
students acquire a deep interest in monozukuri, the “art” inmaking things, enabling them to more effectively use theirlearning for the good of society.

Faculty of Global Communications

Graduate School of Letters

With a good knowledge of strategies acquired in the Faculty of
Global Communications, graduates are expected to become proficientnegotiators and administrators in organizations involved in international
business, education and culture. Three courses of study, English,
Chinese and Japanese, will equip students with complex language skills
that are critical for international success, and an awareness of how toadapt, and succeed in the many aspects of the rapidly-changing world.

Environmental disruption, terrorism, conflicts between religions
and ethnic groups - such diverse and complex problems are
happening on a global scale. Everywhere we witness events
that indicate borderlessness of the present-day society, and thedrastic changes in both quantity and quality have thrown theworld into uncertainty. While it is important for academia toseek and propose specific solutions for specific problems, the time
now also requires us to ask a more fundamental question of “whatis human?” in order to seek new possibilities of human wisdom.
The Graduate School of Letters consists of five majors:
Philosophy, English Literature and English Linguistics, Cultural
History, Japanese Literature, and Aesthetics and Art Theory.
Each major has Master’s and Doctoral degree programs. Studentsof the Master’s degree program deepen their understanding of
the area of their specialization, while those in the Doctoral degree
program aim to acquire the ability and profound knowledge topursue researches on their own. The graduate school, placing anemphasis on international cooperation with foreign universities,
through symposiums and joint researches, strives to cultivate
talented individuals who can lead the next generation with their
deep understanding of language and culture that are generated
from the close and constant interactions between society andhuman beings, interactions defined by the very nature of humansociety itself.

All the students of the English and Chinese Courses will experience a
one-year Study Abroad program. Through this experience, students will
gain an in depth understanding of foreign cultures, and increase theirchances to contribute to the global society in a meaningful way.
Our Japanese degree course aims at providing students from abroadwith a deep grasp of Japanese culture. Moreover, students will be able
to navigate not only the academic world for further study but also thebusiness world for a successful career. Through the Seminar on JapaneseSociety, and through a program of cultural-immersion experiences,
communication skills will be honed and cultural understanding will bebroadened.
The culmination of the 4-year program in Global Communications is
the Seminar Project. Students will take the initiative in proposing,planning, and administering original projects such as an international
conference or a major cultural event. Through the management of the
project, students will acquire practical communication skills necessary
when working in the global environment.

GRADUATE COURSES
Graduate School of Theology

Graduate School of Social Studies

The Graduate School of Theology occupies a unique andimportant place as a center for religious studies in Japan
where the number of institutions that offer opportunities tostudy religions academically is limited. The Graduate School of
Theology provides programs of study leading to the degrees ofMaster of Theology and Doctor of Theology. The M. Th. Programis divided into five major courses of study: Biblical Theology,
Historical Theology, Systematic Theology, Practical Theology,
and Interdisciplinary Study of Monotheistic Religions.
The Biblical Theology Course aims to understand and interpret
the Bible by analyzing the texts in their social and cultural
settings. The Historical Theology Course is concerned with thehistorical development of diverse Christian beliefs, practices,and communities. The Systematic Theology Course deals bothwith clear understanding of various religious thoughts and with
their meaning for and relevance to the problems with which oursociety is faced. The Practical Theology Course enables students
to prepare theoretically and practically for such careers as
ministry, education, and social work. The Interdisciplinary Studyof Monotheistic Religions Course undertakes interdisciplinary
and comprehensive research on Judaism, Christianity, andIslam, and their civilizations in the search for co-existence among
diverse religious traditions.

Globalization and information literacy, regional conflicts andterrorism, labour alienation and unemployment, low birthrate, the ageing population and the changing family system,changes in education and personality development for the next
generation... these changes in society have a fundamental
influence on human beings and their way of life. Social Studies,at the graduate level, attempts to comprehensively investigate
these social changes and to systematically understand therestructuring of the complex framework of society. The ultimate
goal for the students is to acquire methodological skills for
examining issues from a professional as well as an humanistic
perspective in areas such as: relationships between individuals
and society; welfare problems; interpersonal relationship in thework environment; cultural and educational issues in personality
development; mass media as a reflection of society.
With the five majors of Social Welfare, Media Studies, Education,
Sociology and Industrial Relations, the Graduate School of Social
Studies serves as the University headquarters for humanistic
studies of social sciences. Graduates of the school are expected
to be competent in utilising rigorous methodology in order tocomprehensively investigate the nature of various social changes
in their field of expertise. Our graduates are, thus, able to playa leading role in society with their highly specialized knowledge
and international perspective.

Law School

Institute for International Education (IIE)

The mission of the Graduate School of Psychology is to promote
the integrated acquisition of advanced knowledge and learning oftechnology and to cultivate research skills with an emphasis onan empirical understanding of human behavior in experimental
psychology.
Accordingly, the school offers two well-balanced course programs,
Psychology and Clinical Psychology.
In the Psychology course, the emphasis is on both extensive academic
training in general psychology and intensive research training in thestudents’ area of specialization. Students applying to the course are
expected to exhibit an early and continuing commitment to researchand scholarship and eventually become creative scientists.
The Clinical Psychology course includes assessment, clinical researchmethods, and a sequence of core clinical subjects covering the
etiology and treatment of psychopathology, in addition to coursework
in nonclinical areas. Furthermore, this course adopts a scientistpractitioner training model.
We make no distinction between basic and applied research,recognizing that training in basic research is prerequisite for applied
work and that applied research often illuminates fundamental
psychological processes. Through its strong interdisciplinary linkwith the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and medical
sciences, scientific psychology is well positioned to influence criticalissues in society. Our faculty members strive to produce skillfulhuman resources that can contribute to the development of healthy
minds, predict and prevent the problems of modern life, and aid indeveloping solutions to complex problems.

Japan has embarked on a new approach to legal education,
designed to create a new generation of lawyers in sufficientnumbers to serve the needs of modern society.
To help realize the goals of this reform, Doshisha Law School was
opened in April 2004. It is a special type of graduate professional
school. Distinct from Doshisha’s Faculty of Law, it is designed
specifically to train future judges, prosecutors, lawyers and otherlegal professionals. It offers a curriculum strong in the basic
subjects essential to success on the new bar exam and rich inelective courses that will enable students to develop a high degreeof specialized knowledge. While Japanese law is the focus of amajority of the courses, emphasis is also placed on internationallaw as well as foreign and comparative law. The curriculum isintensive and rigorous, featuring lectures, small group seminars
and active participation by students in classroom discussions.
The teaching staff includes renowned scholars as well as persons
with experience as judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and professors
who have taught in foreign law schools and practiced as foreign
lawyers. Approximately 120 students are admitted each year.
Of these, approximately 80 students will complete the programin two years and 40 in three years, depending upon whether
they have demonstrated an adequate undergraduate level
understanding of law at the time of their entrance.

Grounded in Doshisha University's founding educational
principles, the Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Liberal Arts Program at
the Institute for International Education (IIE) combines a private
North American liberal arts college atmosphere and educational
approach with an emphasis on building partnerships between
students and professors in small, interactive classes conducted in
English.

Web >>>http://law-school.doshisha.ac.jp/en/index.html

Students on the BA course are challenged to take responsibility
for their own learning, developing a critical literacy throughintensive reading, reflection, writing, and discussion. The
Institute faculty members challenge students to formulate andask intriguing questions in an interdisciplinary mode of inquiry
across the fields of the humanities and social sciences.
Although concentrating in one of three majors, or "clusters"-Japanese Society and Culture, Japanese Business in the Global
Economy, or Japanese Politics and Global Studies-- students areencouraged to design their own unique four-year curriculum ofstudy, choosing from a wide range of classes offered in English at
the IIE as well as in Japanese throughout the University.
By applying their grounding in local Kyoto and Japanesecontexts to the cultivation of a broad interdisciplinary mindset,
IIE graduates demonstrate the intellectual and social competencenecessary to make a significant contribution to global society.
