Department of Japanese language and Literature
Japanese Language & Literature
Japan has a historically and geographically close relationship with Korea. This spawns the need for systematic research on Japanese language and literature and other fields of Japanese Studies. While focusing its curricula on meeting such needs, the Department aims to produce experts on Japan. In the age of globalization that calls for both a quality education in foreign language and in-depth studies, the Department trains students in practical Japanese through basic courses in Japanese language and literature, balanced perspectives of the East and the West through Japanese social studies, and global vision and informed citizenship.
The courses of the Department aimed at enhancing the levels of students' Japanese proficiency and their knowledge about Japanese culture prepare students to cultivate leadership in academic, economic, and cultural exchanges between Korea and Japan.
