Three Key Points

Strengthening communication skills through interactive, experience-based learning

Fostering exploration and real-world engagement through volunteer activities and study abroad programs

Building practical teaching skills through the use of ICT and active learning strategies

The Department of Secondary Education offers three specialized programs: the Japanese Education Course, the English Education Course, and the International Japanese Education Course. These programs are designed to train future educators who will support students’ academic and personal development through the teaching of Japanese, English, and Japanese as a foreign language.

Each course features a well-rounded curriculum that covers all key areas necessary for teaching Japanese and English at the middle and high school levels, as well as for teaching Japanese to non-native speakers. Students will develop a strong command of language as a tool for understanding, expression, and connection. Through this foundation, the department cultivates educators with global perspectives and cultural sensitivity—teachers who can effectively guide and inspire learners in an increasingly interconnected world.
