About Doshisha Week
Doshisha University established its first overseas campus, “Doshisha EU Campus at Tübingen University” (in short,“Doshisha EU Campus”) within the main campus of the University of Tübingen in Germany in 2017, thanks to the generous
support and strong commitment of President Bernd Engler of the University of Tübingen. Doshisha EU Campus wasestablished for the purpose of promoting research and educational exchanges with the University of Tübingen, as well aswith other prestigious and excellent universities and research institutions in Germany and in other EU countries.
Doshisha University and the University of Tübingen have long and fruitful experiences in research and educational
exchange, mainly in the fields of the humanities and social sciences. In 2019, we started the “Doshisha Week” at theUniversity of Tübingen aiming at broadening the research exchange between Doshisha and Tübingen beside the humanitiesand social sciences to other disciplines, especially to the natural and life sciences. With this we hope to enhance“internationalism,” one of our educational philosophies, in order to contribute to the society.

Doshisha COVID-19 Research Project
Doshisha University has launched the "COVID-19 Research Project" with 77
subjects of 9 fields covering 3 areas including "Health & Medical Care","Society & Economy", and "Education, Culture & Lifestyle".
At present, the whole world is under the pandemic of COVID-19 which issaid to occur once in a hundred years. It is also said that, after thepandemic is calmed down, new era of drastic changes, including changes insocial structure and values, will come. However, even in these changes,responsibility of a university in education, research and social contribution
does not change.
What should the post-COVID-19 society be like? Is it possible to sustain
values of liberty and equality? Can we develop technologies needed? Whatshould we suggest and achieve for the post-COVID-19 era?
Doshisha University will take our advantage as a comprehensive university
to capture post-COVID-19 from every standpoint and area, integrate thefindings, and disseminate our achievements as valuable direction forsociety.
