The Master’s Course emphasizes the development and enhancement of basic research qualities according to the graduate student’s field of specialization. In providing guidance, professors pay attention to all eight fields of study so that students do not become biased toward a particular field of study and can acquire research methods from multiple perspectives. In the spring semester of the second year, students make a mid-term presentation of their master’s thesis and receive guidance and advice from all faculty members. In the doctoral program, students engage in in-depth research in their field of specialization and complete a course doctoral dissertation. For this purpose, a guidance committee is formed to provide guidance in the preparation of the dissertation. We have awarded doctoral degrees to one student in 2009-2011, two in 2012, two in 2014, one in both 2017 and 2018, and one in 2021. Detailed guidance is also provided for presentations at academic conferences. English-language study is also available in the Department of Education.
