Departments and Faculties

    • Faculty of Political Science & Economics

    • ・Political Science & Economics Department
    • In this advanced information society, we can communicate with people all over the world freely regardless of time or distance. At the same time that you learn more about the world, learn deeply about the local town or area in which you live. Just like fostering friendships with people from another country, foster your ties with the local community. This faculty is based on these perspectives.

    • Faculty of Humanities

    • ・European-American Culture Department
    • ・Japanese Culture Department
    • The word "humanity" comes from the Latin word "humanitas," which broadly means human nature. While following the tradition of humanities in Christian culture, on which this university was founded, we aim to integrate that with modern humanities studies, which combine education and culture. Overall, this faculty is the place to learn comprehensively about humankind itself and human cultures.

At the Human Welfare Department, we aim to train specialists who are determined to develop a new welfare culture in an aging society.
