BA (Hons) Japanese Studies

Complex, unique, endlessly fascinating, Japan embraces modernity and technology while maintaining its rich traditional culture. Our Japanese Studies course will develop both your Japanese language skills and your understanding of Japanese culture and society. You'll also spend part of your degree studying in Japan, immersing yourself in Japanese society.
Study on one of the UK’s longest running Japanese Studies programmes, with over 60 years of experience creating leaders within the field. Our award-winning teaching staff will give you the insights, language skills and disciplinary knowledge to critically appreciate Japanese society, history, politics and culture.

From day one, you’ll go deep into the language of the country, studying the phonetic scripts (kana), picking up the 2,000 Sino-Japanese characters (kanji) over the course of your degree – all while developing subject expertise in the humanities and social sciences. Thanks to our intensive language training approach, you’ll graduate with a high level of proficiency in written and spoken Japanese.

You’ll spend a year studying at a Japanese university, putting what you've learned into practice and gaining life-changing experience. In your final year, you will develop a dissertation project on a topic of your choice, supported by world-leading researchers.

The degree gives you the skills to truly unpick every aspect of your chosen subject, acquiring both critical approaches to the study of Japan, and first-hand experience of the country and its peoples.
