To ensure learning that is smooth and high in quality, we have established three areas of specialization: basic, practical, and international. After building an academic foundation, the curriculum is designed to enable students to approach the basic, practical, and international issues surrounding education today with confidence. The program also trains teachers and researchers who value human dignity and who excel in their humanity and expertise, as well as those who are independent and pedagogically literate enough to play an active role in the international community.
The Department of Education offers a degree program with the SPSF (Sophia Program for Sustainable Futures) and instruction in English.
Curriculum
In the first and second years, students study subjects (philosophy of education, history of Japanese education, sociology of education, educational methodology, school pedagogy, clinical sociology for school, international education, and international educational development) that form the foundation of basic, practical, and international studies, The will also gain the knowledge necessary to approach various social issues centering on education. From the third year, each student selects a field of interest and pursues specialized study under the guidance of faculty members in seminars, and in the fourth year, students conduct research and write a graduation thesis. The program features an environment in which students can study a wide range of subjects according to their interests, with numerous elective courses ranging from lectures to seminars.
