Kyoto is known as a historic capital where there are
many cultural assets and world heritages, also famous
of its beautiful scenery and seasonal transitions.
Streetscapes feel as though we are back in time, and
yet the city is now one of the important centers for
industries of the latest technology and institutions with
outstanding academic research. Doshisha University
was founded in 1875 by Joseph Hardy Neesima,
who became one of the six great educators of the
Meiji era. He believed that it was important for his
students to learn diverse forms of self-realization.
Today, our students are encouraged to nurture a sense
of freedom, independence and conscience, in this
distinct city where innovation and tradition brings you
both excitement of the contemporary world, and the
quietness of ancient Japan.
Welcome to Kyoto Welcome to Doshisha

First of all, there is the fact that Doshisha University is located in Kyoto. Nearly 40 percent of all students in Japan go to universities in Tokyo and its surrounding area. A huge concentration of students live and study in and around our capital city. Of course, there are great advantages in going to a university in the metropolis. But we should not forget that most of the world's population does not reside in capital cities. It is also extremely important that intercultural exchange take place in areas outside our capital city as well as inside it. Above all, I firmly believe that there is a profound significance in being able to spend one's youth in Kyoto, a city where tradition has historically co-existed with a spirit of innovation.
Secondly, there is the fact that Doshisha University is a private, and therefore independent, university. The educational philosophy of Doshisha University's founding father, Joseph Hardy Neesima (Jo Niijima), continues to thrive on our campus. At a time when the Meiji government was trying, in its policy of wakon yosai, or “Japanese spirit with Western technology,” to adopt the technology and systems of the West for the sake of modernization without truly understanding and incorporating Western ways of thinking, Neesima argued for the vital importance of a civic society that supported Western technology and systems, and devoted himself to creating independent-minded, wise cit izens who could comprise that civic society – to educating people, as he termed it, who can “make decisions and take actions on the strength of their own conscience.” This emphasis by Neesima on the importance of developing a civic society is an example that surely many countries could still take to heart.
Thirdly, there is the fact that Doshisha has always made Christianity the basis of its education. We know that Christians have only ever comprised a mere 1 percent of the Japanese population, from the Meiji period up until today. On the other hand, the number of Christians worldwide has now reached 2.2 billion. To be able to look at social phenomena from a Christian perspective, and to have a basic understanding and knowledge of Christian teachings in Japan today, is both to know what it is to be a minority and thus appreciate the importance of tolerance, and also to know what it is to be part of a majority and to be linked with others in a global world. As if to prove this, on our campus, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Shinto, exist together in harmony.
It is the combination of these distinctive characteristics of Doshisha University – our location in Kyoto, the fact that we are a private university, and the Christian beliefs that lie at the heart of the education we offer here – that makes Doshisha a truly excellent and unique place to study. Underlying these characteristics are three qualities essential for a productive and engaged life in the globalized world of the 21st century: an appreciation of diversity, a spirit of tolerance, and respect for individual conscience. In Doshisha's traditions, there is something that is extremely modern that speaks to life in the modern world.
Doshisha has three characteristics that make it an exceptional university.
Koji Murata, Ph. D.PresidentDoshisha University
The Spirit of Doshisha University For the past 130 years, Doshisha University has been committed to the idea of “education of conscience,” or nurturing “those who use their abilities as conscience dictates.” University founder Joseph Hardy Neesima’s educational philosophy is encapsulated in the words engraved on the memorial monument at the main gate of Imadegawa and Kyotanabe campuses, which read, “I earnestly desire that many young people filled with conscience will be raised and sent out by our school.” Doshisha has indeed sent many promising graduates out into the world since its Neesima’s time. The spiritual pillars of our educational activities: “Christian principles,” “liberalism,” and “internationalism” reflect this background.

Doshisha College Song Words by W.M. Vories Music by Carl Wilhelm
138 years ago, Joseph Hardy Neesima broke new ground in Japanese education and sowed the seeds of liberal learning in people’s mind, which have been passed down over generations. Neesima’s vision formed the basis of Doshisha, and has always been present as Doshisha has evolved.
Joseph Hardy Neesima was born as a son of a samurai in 1843, and studied hard to become both a good warrior and a good scholar. Gradually gaining awareness about Western culture and Christianity, he had a serious concern about the future of Japan and realized the importance of studying in Western countries. Neesima left Japan for America in 1864, defying an overseas travel ban. Filled with anxiety and hope, he had begun his adventure. In Shanghai, he boarded a ship, the Wild Rover, bound for Boston.
Under the benevolent support of A. Hardy, the owner of the Wild Rover, Neesima received baptism and studied at Phillips Academy and Amherst College. As he learned advanced Western science and technology and blended into American life, he realized that there was a deep-rooted spiritual background of Christianity in America. He decided to become a minister himself, entering a seminary after graduating from college. The eight years of study at Christian educational institutions in America taught him the importance of conscience and liberty based on Christianity, which is to live according to the will of God and to exercise the freedom only within the realm of the conscience. Neesima returned to his homeland after ten years with a strong ambition to establish a Christian university as well as to spread Christianity.
One purpose, Doshisha, thy name
Doth signify one lofty aim;
To train thy sons in heart and hand
To live for God and Native Land.
Dear Alma Mater, sons of thine
Shall be as branches to the vine;
Tho’ through the world we wander far and wide,
Still in our hearts thy precepts shall abide!
We came to Doshisha to find
The broader culture of the mind;
We tarried here to learn anew
The value of a purpose true;
Dear Alma Mater, ours the part
To face the future staunch of heart,
Since thou hast taught us with high aim to stand
For God, for Doshisha, and Native Land!
When war clouds bring their dark alarms.
Ten thousand patriots rush to arms,
But we would through long years of peace
Our Country’s name and fame increase.
Dear Alma Mater, sons of thine
Will hold their lives a trust divine
Steadfast in purpose we will ever stand
For God, for Doshisha, and Native Land!

Emblem of Doshisha School Color of Doshisha
Upon returning to Japan, Neesima established Doshisha Eigakko (Academy) in 1875. He wished not only to nurture individuals with diverse skills and abilities but also to nurture those who would put their conscience into practice, by cultivating a decent character with strong morality and mentality. He believed that a real democratic society could be established by respecting each person’s individuality and at the same time a person must have conscience and liberty. In his last days, Neesima said, “Those who teach students must treat them respectfully.” His educational policy of respecting each individual student has been maintained at Doshisha over the years.Neesima died in 1890, at the age of 46, without fulfilling his ambition. However, his students and those who had the same ambition passed on his legacy and established Doshisha University in 1912.
In 2005, Doshisha celebrated the 130th anniversary of its founding. In order to realize Neesima’s words,
“Education takes 200 years to complete.”, we have been implementing ambitious reform programs, such as establishing new faculties and developing an advanced research system. However, our university is still on the road to achieving its mission. All faculty members and graduates, together with the students, are sharing an aspiration and making a collective effort to complete the university and to fully realize Neesima’s vision.
The emblem of Doshisha, which consists of three triangles, is a stylized Assyrian letter meaning a nation or a land. It was designed by Hangetsu Yuasa, a poet and a scholar of the Ancient Orient, whom Doshisha produced. Hangetsu was a professor of Theology at Doshisha University when the emblem was made. Since then, it has been interpreted as a symbol of Doshisha’s educational philosophy aiming at the harmony of three elements of education: intellectual, moral and physical educations.
Our school colors are purple and white.
The royal purple of Doshisha, which is a
medium color between Tyrian purple and
Edo purple, is the same school color as that
of Amherst College in America where the
founder, Joseph Hardy Neesima, studied.
The field of the school flag is royal purple
with the emblem in white.
When war clouds bring their dark alarms.
Ten thousand patriots rush to arms,
But we would through long years of peace
Our Country’s name and fame increase.
Dear Alma Mater, sons of thine
Will hold their lives a trust divine
Steadfast in purpose we will ever stand
For God, for Doshisha, and Native Land!
Still broader than our land of birth,
We’ve learnd the oneness of our Earth;
Still higher than self-love we find
The love and service of mankind.
Dear Alma Mater, sons of thine
Would strive to live the life divine;
That we may with increasing years have stood
For God, for Doshisha, and Brotherhood!

Since its foundation in 1875 the School of Theology has established itself as a pioneer in the field of Christian theology in Japan where the number of institutions that offer opportunities to study religions academically is limited. A thorough study of religions leads to a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of human beings and their society, culture, and history.Since 2003 the School of Theology has been vigorously promoting interdisciplinary studies of the three monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Followers in Judaism, Christianity, or Islam together make up 55 percent of the total population in the world. In order to understand the current situation of the world, it is essential to gain a clear knowledge of these Abrahamic religions. The School of Theology aims to play a role as "mediator" in achieving peace and mutual understanding
between the world's regions and civilizations.At the School of Theology the number of compulsory courses is reduced to a minimum so that the students can freely assemble their own curriculum depending on their concerns. The students can also improve their linguistic ability needed to study the three Semitic religions such as Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and Arabic.The School of Theology has fostered numerous "specialists in Christianity," including ministers, teachers, social workers and counselors working at hospitals and welfare facilities.

Society is ever-changing, but human nature isn’t. With the reasonable understanding of human nature, one can live confidently even if society changes unexpectedly. The Faculty of Letters appreciate language, literature, philosophy, history, art, and culture in order to explore the essence of human activities in variable situations.The Faculty of Letters consists of five departments: English, Philosophy, Aesthetics and Art Theory, Cultural History, and Japanese Literature. All the departments share the one educational purpose: to encourage students to seek the meaning and values of humanities by themselves. Each of the five departments, with its own well-established academic discipline, seeks the answers both in theory and practice to one common fundamental question—“What does it mean to be human now?”
The philosophy of Joseph Hardy Neesima, who said that every single person should be equally respected, is still alive in interactive classes at the Faculty of Letters. Small-sized seminars, which usually consist of ten to twenty students, generously offer opportunites to exchange ideas and opinions actively and promote mutual understandings among students and teachers.In addition to their major courses, students can attend classes of different departments by registering in the Minor Degree Program. The program is available to all the students of the Faculty of Letters who hope to expand their academic interests by opening the door to a new intellectual field that is to be cultivated by their own fresh discoveries.

Social Studies is concerned with how our everyday life is affected by our environment and the ties we create with it. The Faculty of Social Studies encourages students to pursue issues related to contemporary society and to foster an understanding of the processes that shape social networks, communities and institutions in an increasingly globalized world. Social Studies cover the whole range of human behaviour ranging from regional conflicts, labour alienation and unemployment to changing notions of the family, the aging society and the welfare state. The Faculty is broad-based and offers majors in five areas: Sociology; Social Welfare; Media, Journalism and Communications; Industrial Relations; Education and Culture. A course in Social Studies will enable students to use a broad range of analytical tools and to think critically about
contemporary social problems in a stimulating setting. We place emphasis on instruction in small groups and personal guidance by both Faculty members and student tutors. Both theoretical training and practical experience are creatively combined to create a holistic learning experience. Whether fieldwork, social surveys or quantitative analysis, our graduates will have acquired the skills to conduct successful inquiries into the nature of society from a humanistic point of view.

The goal of the Faculty of Law is to equip students with the ability to identify problems in various social spheres and provide adequate solutions based on the concept of the “legal mind” essential to solving problems with sound judgment and a sense of fairness. The Faculty’s education provides students with a broad-ranging and highly relevant qualification that will prove invaluable for professional careers in many different fields.The Faculty consists of the Department of Law and the Department of Political Science. The main characteristic of the curriculum of the Department of Law is the “step-up system,” in which students take introductory subjects, basic subjects, and advanced subjects, step by step. The advanced subjects cluster offers a choice of four models, enabling students to acquire specialized knowledge according to
their individual interests and career options.The curriculum of the Department of Political Science is also based on the “step-up system.” Students have a choice of three core-course advanced subject areas: International Relations, Modern Political Science, History and Thought. By choosing one of the three subject areas, students can assimilate advanced specialist knowledge in step with their own personal interests and with their future careers in mind.

Department of Economics envisions a learning community dedicated to empowering its students to improving economic competitiveness, advancing social justice, reducing poverty, celebrating creativity and artistic expression. These envisions are realized through the education which is facilitated to acquaint students with the economic aspects of modern society, to familiarize them with techniques for the analysis of contemporary economic problems and to develop in them an ability to exercise judgment in evaluating public policy. Strengths in the department include macroeconomics, micro-economics theory, econometrics, environmental economics, public economics, cultural economics, institutional economics, economic history, development economics, game theory, industrial organization, international trade and finance, labor economics. Main body of our
research is the application of frontier theoretical and quantitative tools to the analysis of important practical issues. The main educational vehicle which improves the logical and analytical ability of student is “Project oriented seminar”. In this subject, students collect materials, analyze data, build theoretical model, and discuss the issues in a small size group. Through the intensive education in a small size class, the interactive learning between the professors and students are stimulated effectively, and students are trained to achieve the purpose of the project. In addition, advanced level of IT skill can be mastered through the sophisticated IT curriculums.

The Faculty of Commerce aims to produce graduates who have acquired: basic knowledge of industrial and economic issues and activities; the ability to analyze issues associated with enterprise and industry; and effective problem solving and decision-making skills. We seek to achieve these aims by providing systematic educational policy on our areas of expertise including commerce, finance, business administration, accounting, and economics. Students are to take foundational classes in basic subjects in their first year and advanced classes in core subjects starting in their second year. In the spring term of their third year, students can select two core-subject clusters from a choice of five, depending on their individual educational goals. From that point forward, they strive to improve their specialist knowledge through the organized study of a broad
variety of subjects (including subjects outside their chosen clusters) albeit with emphasis on their chosen clusters. In addition, new subjects with fresh content are introduced from time to time in response to changing trends and expectations. Special features of the faculty are: classes offering firsthand experience on the forefronts of the business scene; an emphasis on the ‘first-year experience’ that stimulates the desire to learn; support for students seeking careers as business professionals.

With a good knowledge of strategies acquired in the Faculty of Global Communications, graduates are expected to become successful negotiators and administrators in organizations involved in international business, education and culture. Choosing from one of the three programs of study: English, Chinese or Japanese, students will learn complex language skills which are critical for international success. Moreover, they will gain an awareness of how to adapt, and succeed in the many aspects of the rapidly-changing world. All the students of the English and Chinese Courses will participate in a one-year Study Abroad program. Through this experience, students will gain an in-depth understanding of foreign cultures, and increase their chances to contribute to the global society in a meaningful way. Our Japanese degree course aims at providing students from abroad with a
deep grasp of Japanese culture. Moreover, students will be able to navigate not only the academic world for further study but also the business world for a successful career. Through the Seminar on Japanese Society, and through a program of cultural-immersion experiences, communication skills will be honed and cultural understanding will be broadened. The culmination of the 4-year program in Global Communications is the Seminar Project. Students will take the initiative in proposing, planning, and administering original projects such as an international conference or a major cultural event. Through the management of such a project, students will “learn by doing” which is the best preparation for working in the global environment.

In recent years in the media, the phrase “it is necessary to think from a global perspective” has come to inform our experience. Most global problems arise from regional problems such as conflicts between cultures, races, or economies. Consequently, in order that we accurately grasp global problems, it is indispensable that we deeply understand the issues and cultures concerning local regions.The “Faculty of Global and Regional Studies” is concerned with the interdisciplinary intellectual foundation of local cultures, histories, and societies. From a global perspective, it carries out research on a variety of problems confronting contemporary society. The students of the faculty, belonging to one of the three courses, Europe, Asia-Pacific, or Americas, make use of the various languages used in these regions, analyze problems by themselves, and think about
ways to resolve them. While these three regional divisions have their own distinctive characteristics in the formation of their cultures and societies, they continue to exert influence on one another in their development. Through four years of study and research from a global perspective, students acquire the ability to be active within the international community.

Program is divided into five major courses of study: Biblical Theology, Historical Theology, Systematic Theology, Practical Theology, and Interdisciplinary Study of Monotheistic Religions.The Biblical Theology Course aims to understand and interpret the Bible by analyzing the texts in their social and cultural settings. The Historical Theology Course is concerned with the historical development of diverse Christian beliefs, practices, and communities.
The Systematic Theology Course deals both with clear understanding of various religious thoughts and with their meaning for and relevance to the problems with which our society is faced. The Practical Theology Course enables students to prepare theoretically and practically for such careers as ministry, education, and social work. The Interdisciplinary Study of Monotheistic Religions Course undertakes interdisciplinary and comprehensive research on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and their civilizations in the search for co-existence among diverse religious traditions.

The Graduate School of Letters asks one single question: what does it mean to be human now? This question is traditional because it has been asked again and again by innumerable people in long human history in and outside Japan. It is also new, however, now that human conditions are being changed so dramatically that we have to interrogate all the traditionally accepted answers in order to find a better one for each of inhabitants in global society. The Graduate School of Letters is always aware of the need of constant dialogues between tradition and innovation or localism and globalism.The Graduate School of Letters consists of five majors: Philosophy, English Literature and English Linguistics, Cultural History, Japanese Literature, and Aesthetics and Art Theory. Each major has Master’s and Doctoral degree programs. Students of the Master’s degree program
expand their understanding of the academic requirements of their special fields while Doctoral candidates aim to acquire highly advanced knowledge to pursue researches on their own. Our graduate program, placing an emphasis on international cooperation with foreign universities and researchers strives to cultivate talented individuals who can lead the next generation with their insightful understanding of language and culture that are generated from the constant interactions between tradition and innovation or localism and globalism. Behind varieties of our ever-changing academic activities at the Graduate School of Letters lies the same question: what does it mean to be human now?

Our brains underlie the uniqueness of human beings. Understanding how the brain works is therefore one of the most important problems in the science of nature and the mind. The outcomes of brain science research will also provide insight into how we treat/prevent neurological and mental disorders, and ultimately how we educate our children. In this regard, research in brain development and aging is significant not only to academia but also to our entire society. We therefore perceive the urgency of fostering young scientists who can lead and push this research field forward.Our program faculty consists of internationally renowned scientists in molecular, cellular, systems, and pathological neuroscience. Their research interests include neural development and differentiation, protein trafficking, synaptic physiology, neural circuits, ion channels,
and Alzheimer’s disease. The five-year training program revolves around these excellent research programs to foster next-generation scientists.To achieve this goal, we encourage students to develop their abilities in critical thinking, problem and goal setting, and professional communication in addition to scientific knowledge and research techniques. We believe that acquiring these merits will help them excel and become true leaders not only in brain research but also in any areas of problem solving.

Japan has embarked on a new approach to legal education, designed to create a new generation of lawyers in sufficient numbers to serve the needs of modern society.To help realize the goals of this reform, Doshisha Law School was opened in April 2004. It is a special type of graduate professional school. Distinct from Doshisha’s Faculty of Law, it is designed specifically to train future judges, prosecutors, lawyers and other legal professionals. It offers a curriculum strong in the basic subjects essential to success on the new bar exam and rich in elective courses that will enable students to develop a high degree of specialized knowledge. While Japanese law is the focus of a majority of the courses, students are also required to learn about international law or foreign and comparative law. The curriculum is intensive
and rigorous, featuring lectures, small group seminars and active participation by students in classroom discussions. The teaching staff includes renowned scholars as well as persons with experience as judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and professors who have taught in foreign law schools and practised as foreign lawyers. For the 2013 academic year, 40 students were newly admitted to the law school. Of these, 32 students who demonstrated an adequate undergraduate-level knowledge of law entered a two year program, with another 8 being admitted to a three year program that assumes no knowledge of law at all, and is intended to make the legal profession accessible to people from a wide variety of backgrounds. http://www.doshisha.ac.jp/english/faculties/professional/law.html
Doshisha Business School (DBS) opened in 2004 following a long tradition of successful Kyoto based global corporations including Omron, Kyocera, Nintendo and Shimadzu.

National Health InsuranceThe National Health Insurance System in Japan is an insurance system to reduce individuals’ medical costs. All international students residing in Japan for 3 months or longer are required to enroll in the program. Formalities are carried out at students' local municipal office’s National Health Insurance Section. After enrollment, students will pay premiums. International students will receive a discount on the fee if their income is less than a certain amount. Upon joining the National Health Insurance System they will be issued a National Health Insurance Certificate. If they show this at the reception desk when they receive medical treatment, they will need to pay only 30% of the incurred medical costs. In the case of major medical expenses incurred as a result of hospitalization etc., Students may be eligible for a refund from National Health Insurance to cover the excess amount as a Major Medical Expense.
Student Health CentersStudent Health Centers are located on both the Imadegawa and Kyotanabe campuses to help maintain the physical and mental health of the students and to provide them with support. They offer such services as annual physical checkups in April, health maintenance in the form of detailed tests and illness management, health consultations, mental health counseling, and internal medical examinations.
Student CounselingCounselors work with the students to maximize their individual abil it ies to resolve problems, including concerns about interpersonal relationships on campus, personality problems, psychological problems, future career options, and school work.
Support for Students with DisabilityThe university is committed to assisting students with disability and the support staff in developing self-reliance and awareness,
and to sharing the results achieved in the process with the community. We are always seeking support staff. After their training period, staff members engage in such activities as note-taking, PC interpretation, wheelchair assistance, writing assistance, and escorting.

EU Information CenterThe EU Information Center (EU i), designated by the European Commission as an information center dedicated to EU-related documents, has been established in about 500 universities all over the world. The EU i at Doshisha University, established in 1976, was the third one opened in Japan. The EU i provides official EU documents and publications sent from the Publications Office of the European Union. The documents are widely available to anyone. This is the case because the role of the EU i is not only to provide assistance to scholars and students at universities studying about the EU, but also to promote better understanding of the EU to the general public. At Doshisha University, the EU i undertakes activities such as open lectures, symposiums, and panel exhibitions at its annual EU-Japan Friendship Week, as part of its efforts to stimulate mutual understanding of each other’s society and culture.
Doshisha University offers many opportunities for International students and Japanese Students to exchange and share their culture. We have “International Day” regularly which is planned and run by volunteer staff of both International and Japanese students. We inform about the event on the bulletin board of the Office of International Students or the website (http://www.doshisha.ac.jp/international/communication/event.html) and the Facebook page of International Center.

Students are also able to make use of nearly 1.6 million documents belonging to various faculty laboratories and research centers. The materials housed in the libraries are not limited to printed matter. Both the Imadegawa Library and the Learned Memorial Library have extensive multimedia libraries, enabling students to have access more than 6,000 videos, audio disks and tapes, and DVDs. Students can also view overseas TV news broadcasts, Students can access a wide range of electronic resources on the Doshisha University Library website, such as the online library catalog “DOORS,” e-journals, the Academic Repository, and databases. These resources can be used for online searches through dictionaries, encyclopedias, newspaper and magazine articles, court precedents, information about people, and the like. The personal computer corners are full of students using all available reference materials and resources to write papers or prepare presentations.The Reference Counter at each library provides consultation regarding how to use the library, search for reference materials, and related issues. In addition, it offers advice on methods for collecting documents pertaining to the research themes of individuals. If the necessary reference materials are not available at Doshisha, assistance will be provided in requesting them from other universities in Japan or abroad. Furthermore, special workshops are held on various practical subjects, such as methods for collecting documents using “DOORS” or databases. Through a broad spectrum of services aimed at supporting studies, the libraries strive to provide an environment where each and every student can constructively focus on studying.

OUTBOUND PROGRAMSDoshisha University aims to cultivate people who would be
regarded as “the nation’s conscience” with the educational
ideals of Christian principles, Internationalism and Liberalism.
“Internationalism” at Doshisha is not only about being able to
speak foreign languages; our goal is for the students to pursue
their study with an international perspective. We encourage them
to be open to different values, exposed to diverse cultures in
the world and learn to accept each other’s differences, following
the spirit of our founder Joseph Hardy Neesima who defied the
overseas travel ban to study in America and later established
Doshisha based on the knowledge and experience that he
gained there. Doshisha University currently offers study abroad
programs of short, medium and long terms. Short-term programs
are Summer Programs and Spring Programs, in which students
participate in intensive language training overseas during a long
vacation. Medium-term programs are Semester Programs, which
are intensive English programs held at overseas institutions for
approximately four months. Through these programs, students
can improve their English skills to the level they can apply for the
long-term student exchange for either half year or one year.
We also provide students with opportunities to study together with
international students, in the classes offered in collaboration with
foreign universities and organization that have study centers on
Doshisha campus. In addition, extracurricular TOEFL preparation
classes are also available to support those who aim to study in an
English speaking country.
Summer and Spring ProgramsDoshisha University offers intensive overseas language programs,
during summer in England, U.S., Canada, Ireland, Australia,
Germany, France, China, Mexico, Russia and Korea, and during
spring in New Zealand, Australia, U.S., Germany, France, China
and Spain. These programs are electives, available as part of
the regular undergraduate programs. With study in the respective
countries taking place during the summer or spring vacation, each
of them includes preparatory classes at Doshisha in the semester
preceding each program.
Summer and Spring Programs are designed to develop the
students’ language skills to an advanced level in conjunction
with other foreign language subjects, as well as to deepen the
students’ understanding of the culture and society of the country
they visit through everyday-life experiences, staying either on
homestay or in a dormitory together with TA students of the host
university.
Semester ProgramsSemester Programs are intensive English language program
held in the Fall semester at overseas institutions. Spending
approximately four months at University of Winnipeg in Canada,
Deakin University in Australia or University of Hawai’i at Ma-noa
in the U.S., participating students will improve their English skills
as well as have a better understanding of the culture and society
of the respective countries. In addition to the language courses,
homestay experience gives the students an opportunity to feel the
cultural difference at first hand, which will further increase their
interest in foreign cultures.
Student Exchange Programs Through Student Exchange Program, Doshisha students are
currently able to study at 135 partner institutions in 32 countries
and regions all over the world for either one academic year or one
semester. Every year, many highly motivated students participate
in this program and gain invaluable experience and a broader
international perspective. With growing popularity, both the
numbers of exchange places and actual participants have been
and continue to be increasing over recent years.

Science and Engineering Research InstituteThe study of science and engineering at Doshisha has a long
tradition with origins traceable back to the “Harris Science School”.
Joseph Hardy Neesima, who studied natural science at Amherst
College, founded the school in 1890, believing that the promotion of
science and engineering was necessary for Japan’s modernization.
Building on this tradition, the Research Institute was established in
1959 to promote studies of basic science and engineering and its
application, including mathematics, physics, astronomy, medical
science, earth science, history of science and creative engineering.
The main areas of research recently have been in the fields of
environmental, biomedical, and mathematical studies. The research
findings are published in the Institute’s own bulletin which is widely
distributed in Japan and abroad.
Institute for the Study of Humanities and Social SciencesThe institute was founded in 1944 for the purpose of promoting
theoretical, historical and applied studies in the fields of humanities
and social sciences, and of contributing to academic research in
Japan.
The institute’s main functions are the following;
1) Developing interdisciplinary research programs
2) Publishing ongoing research projects in periodicals and books
3) Arranging public lectures and symposiums
4) Collecting and arranging various research materials related to
the humanities and social sciences, and making them available to
faculty, students, and the general public.
International Institute of American StudiesGrowing out of the internationally renowned Kyoto American
Studies summer seminars (1951-1987), the International Institute of
American Studies (IIAS) was established in 1958 and has been one
of Japan's most important research institutes for scholars studying
the United States. The IIAS devotes its energy to collecting books
and research materials that augment its significant library holdings.
Additionally, the IIAS organizes research projects, supports the
public lecture semi-annually, and shares research results through
annual publications.
Not confining its work to Japan, the IIAS has helped to establish a
global network of American Studies scholars who regularly lend their
expertise through lectures and seminars. Any scholar or student in
Japan may use rich resources in the IIAS.
Doshisha University Historical MuseumDoshisha University Historical Museum was established in February
1996 for the purpose of collecting and researching artifacts and
documents in archaeology, history, folklore, history of industry and
technology and other related fields; and for conducting scientific field
survey on the campus site and other properties of the university;
and through these activities, advancing education and academic
research of Doshisha University.
Doshisha Archives CenterDoshisha Archives Center collects, preserves and utilizes historical
documents and materials related to the Doshisha and its founder
Joseph Hardy Neesima to pass down Doshisha’s history and
tradition to future generations. It also holds exhibitions about the
history of the Doshisha with the aim of acquainting our students,
staff and the public with the fundamental spirit of our university.
