Meiji University

The Graduate School of Arts and Letters nine majors: Japanese literature, English literature, French literature, German literature, Drama and Theatre Arts, Literary Arts and Media, History, Geography, and Clinical Anthropology. The history major is further divided into four specialized courses (Japanese history, Asian history, European history, and Archaeology), while the clinical anthropology major is divided into clinical psychology and clinical sociology courses. Each major and course is designed to give students a multifaceted education in the basic science of the humanities and, at the same time, help them contribute to the resolution of the universal problems that humankind faces in modern society. It is our aim to produce outstanding graduates who can balance deep sensibilities with a sharp intellect, nobility of spirit and a scientific awareness of different times and spaces. The goal of the master’s program is to develop professionals with specialist knowledge, while the doctoral program aims to create expert researchers in their chosen fields.
