Lectures and seminars, all taught
in English, where AIKOM students can study together with Japanese
students the dynamics of Japanese culture, society, and political
economy in a broad international context.
Two courses (relay lectures and accompanying seminars) are specially designed
to bring AIKOM students into contact with many of the faculty members at Komaba.
Each week lectures are given by specialists in various fields, and students discuss
the topics of these lectures in the seminars during the following week.
AIKOM lectures have included topics such as:
|
Aspects of Japanese Society |
| |
Dynamics of Japanese Cultural History |
| |
Corporate Value Enhancement Strategy
and the Case Study |
| |
Reading Japanese Novels |
| |
Learning from Museum |
| |
The Government and Politics of Japan |

students of the upper division at the College of Arts and Sciences.

Japanese language courses and other
foregin language courses.

Directed independent research
courses.
This is a special credit course which allows students to pursue
their individual academic interest outside the regular course
offerings. Each student can seek advice from a faculty member
who is a specialist in the relevant field.
(*It is not always the case that we can find you an appropriate
instructor for your interest.)
|

Other regular courses at the College, taught in
Japanese.
Students whose Japanese is of a sufficiently high standard can take the courses
offered to the regular students of the upper division at the College of Arts and
Sciences, with the exception of science courses.

Field-work/trips as an integral part of the course
work.

All of these are offered under the direction of the
distinguished teaching staff of the Komaba Campus, with their broad
range of experience. Japanese students will also enroll in the same
courses, except for the Japanese language classes and directed independent
research.
The minimum coursework requirement for the AIKOM program is 16 credits
per semester. Each class is 90 minutes in length, and except for the
language classes two credits are given for each class held once a
week. The AIKOM Japanese course is offered as a five-credit course
and consists of five 90-minutes classes per week.
Courses offered at other University of Tokyo faculties are not open to AIKOM students
