Japan is a leading player in the Asia-Pacific region and the world.
Students who develop a sound understanding of Japanese language and culture will develop transferable and highly valued skills that will enhance their career options. Alternatively, they are able to expand on their interest and knowledge through an articulated structure of higher degree study options at the University of Melbourne. Japanese language classes cater for a range of competencies, from beginners level for students with little or no knowledge of the language to more advanced levels for students with some prior knowledge of Japanese. Students will receive a comprehensive grounding in Japanese language with opportunities to focus on social and cultural areas of interest that include Japanese art and architecture, history, law, politics and popular culture. The Institute was established in 1998 as a major teaching and research initiative of the University of Melbourne.
