For CJSP Students
[AY 2014]
Research Concentrations (specialized research）
1. What is a ‘Concentration’?
“Concentration” is a program of courses, transcending the boarders of specific fields of study,
which makes the most of the multidisciplinary characteristics of the School of Social Sciences.
2. Characteristics

By establishing a set list of courses from multiple fields of study, each Concentration provides
multidisciplinary content transcending the framework of each field and
comprehensive/specialized contents. The Concentrations will provide students with a
systematized course registration model and serve as guidelines when creating their study plan.

Each Concentration requires 10 to 14 credits, which makes it possible to complete in one or
two years. This enables students to register for multiple Concentrations while enrolled.

By completing multiple Concentrations, students will acquire a broad spectrum of knowledge,
fulfilling the objectives of the Academic Degree policy of the School of Social Sciences:
“nurturing human resources to be qualified as both generalist and specialist.”
3. Credits needed for Completion

Each Concentration requires 10 to 14 credits. In addition to “Concentration Required Courses,”
students have “Concentration Required Electives.” Consult the outline of each Concentration in the
“Course Registration Guide” to plan your schedule.

Credits needed to complete the Concentration do not relate to the credits counted towards
graduation. Once you have earned credits, they will be counted as credits to complete the
Concentration regardless of whether or not they are countable towards graduation.

Depending on the Concentration, students might need to submit other reports in addition to meeting
the credit requirements.

Credits earned after 2009 will be counted as credits to complete the Concentration.

For the completion of concentrations, CJSP students are required to earn at least 2 credits from the
prescribed courses of General Program taught in Japanese. Therefore, only students with Japanese
proficiency equivalent to J-CAT 6 level or higher can meet the credit requirements.
4. Certificate of Completion

Students who have met the demands of each Concentration can be issued a “Certificate of
Completion” through the designated process. They should apply for the certificate after the
announcement of grades in the Spring or Fall semester. The university will post notification about
the process on the School of Social Sciences bulletin board and website.
※The office will issue the certificate after the announcement of the 2014 Fall Semester grades.

平和研究/ Peace Studies
1. Abstract
By thinking of peace as a broad concept that includes human rights, disparity concerns, and the
environment, and by studying the activities of NGOs, government and other actors, this course aims to

日本の歴史と文化/ Japanese History and Culture
1. Abstract
Those of us studying in Japan have access to Japanese history and culture at our fingertips, but this also
means that we do not have many opportunities to engage in academic learning.
However, in our ever-globalizing world, there is a great demand for a broad knowledge and
understanding of history. We should voice our thoughts on these matters. We also need to acquire the
ability to interact meaningfully with people whose cultural backgrounds are different from our own. By
enrolling in both English and Japanese courses, general program students will improve English skills
and CJSP students will improve Japanese skills to the point that they will gain the ability to explain
Japanese history and culture in both languages.

CONCENTRATION
サスティナビリティ学 / Sustainability Study
1. Abstract
The goal of this concentration is to understand the significance of sustainability efforts in the regional and
global environment, and to study the related field comprehensively, so that students might understand
how best to realize sustainability goals.
Regional ecosystems are inseparable from local industries, such as agriculture and forestry. They are
also deeply related to industrialization, in that they both provide and consume resources on a global
scale.
By offering a package of sustainability-related studies, students will be made aware of the relevance of
the issue and provided with a framework to capture the structure of the notion, and its related problems,
comprehensively.
This concentration requires students to enroll in economics, politics, law, etc. which relates to the
environment.
Finally, by preparing and submitting a final report upon completion of the program, students are
expected to have acquired the knowledge related to the framework of sustainability studies.

リーガルマインド―法的なものの考え方と議論の技法/ Legal Mind: legal thinking and discussion skills
1. Abstract
For students pursuing a specific study in the field of law, it is not overstating it to say that it is extremely
important to acquire a comprehensive knowledge of the basics of law, such as Constitutional, civil and
criminal law.
In addition, for students studying other fields, learning the skills used to interpret provisions and
becoming familiar with the style of legal discussion will contribute greatly to their efforts to facilitate legal
knowledge of their specific fields of study and deepen their research therein.
This concentration course aims to help students to grasp the legal thought process and enhance their
discussion skills through a comprehensive study of the basics in the field of law.

CONCENTRATION
法と経済学/ Law and Economics
1. Abstract
This course addresses contemporary social phenomenon, mostly consisting of both legal and economic
issues.
For instance, international trade is a part of economics, in the sense that it deals with economic activities,
but if you consider how to include customs clearance procedures, and domestic and international laws
and agreements, it is also a part of law.
It is necessary to understand both economics and law if one hopes to grasp corporate behavior. Even
human behaviors that were originally understood to fall under the category of pure law and be subject to
fields such as civil or criminal law, are now known to be substantiated by an analysis of economic
motivation.
In this context, the purpose of this concentration is to cultivate a comprehensive view of both economic
and legal knowledge with such topics in mind.
