Contents
Welcome to KyotoーWelcome to DoshishaKyoto 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.

DOSHISHA UNIVERSITY 2015 / 2016SINCE 1875
1
Please regard me as a freedom-loving fellow.
Joseph Hardy Neesima (Jo Niijima), the founder of Doshisha University, disagreed with the rigid system of feudal society in Japan and left the country in search of freedom. After enjoying freedom to the fullest in the free society of America and returning to Japan, he established a highly liberal institution that was based on the Christian principles.
Education only is not sufficient to make men virtuous; neither intellectual nor moralphilosophy is enough for it.
“Intellectual education” alone is not sufficient for personality development. Making a person be “a true man” is only possible when “education of soul” is also provided. This is Joseph Hardy Neesima’s educational philosophy.
2
I am a lover of Japan, but not a slave.
Joseph Hardy Neesima was a patriot, but not a narrow-minded one. He was truly an international-minded person. He was the first Japanese citizen to obtain an academic degree overseas. Doshisha University has been committed to international exchanges with overseas universities since its founding.
Christianity is our foundation stone.
Joseph Hardy Neesima believed that “education of soul” would be offered most effectively if it is based on Christianity, especially Protestantism. The Chapel on the Imadegawa Campus is truly a beautiful example of the Spirit of Doshisha.

THE SPIRIT OF DOSHISHA
Doshisha has three characteristics that make it an exceptional university.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 citizens 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
HEART OF ~The Vision of Joseph Hardy Neesima~
The founder of Doshisha University, Joseph Hardy Neesima (Jo Niijima) was born as a son of a samurai in 1843. Due to the social circumstances of that time, he had a serious concern about the future of Japan and rea l ized the importance of studying in Western countries. Neesima left Japan for America in 1864, defying an overseas travel ban. He had begun his adventure in Shanghai and boarded a ship, the Wild Rover, bound for Boston.Under the benevolent support of A. Hardy, the owner of the Wild Rover, Neesima studied at Phil l ips Academy and Amherst College. He returned to his homeland after ten years with a strong ambit ion to establ ish a Christ ian university as well as to spread Christianity.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

UNIVERSITYFor the past 140 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.
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.
DOSHISHAUpon 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. He 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 2015, Doshisha celebrated the 140th anniversary of its founding. In order to realize Neesima’s words, “Education takes 200 years to complete.” 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.

UNDERGRADUATESCHOOLAND FACULTIES■ School of TheologySince 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 of 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 Abrahamic religions such as Hebrew, Koine Greek, and Arabic.The School of Theology has fostered numerous "professionals with values," including ministers, teachers, social workers and counselors working at hospitals and welfare facilities.

■ Faculty of LettersSociety 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 pursues researches on 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.

■ Faculty of Social StudiesSocial 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, Journalismand 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 in fieldwork, social surveys or quantitative analysis, our graduates will acquire the skills to conduct successful inquiries into the nature of society from a humanistic point of view.
https://www.doshisha.ac.jp/en/academics/undergrad/social_studies
■ Faculty of LawThe 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.

■ Faculty of EconomicsDepartment 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, microeconomics 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.

■ Faculty of CommerceThe 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.
https://www.doshisha.ac.jp/en/academics/undergrad/commerce

UNDERGRADUATESCHOOL
AND FACULTIES
■ Faculty of Global CommunicationsWith the strategic knowledge 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 that are critical for international success. Moreover, they will gain an awareness of how to adapt and succeed in the many aspects of our rapidly changing world.All of the students in 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 to provide students from abroad with a deep understanding of Japanese language and 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 the Faculty of 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 a global environment.
http://globalcommunications.doshisha.ac.jp/en
■ Faculty of Global and Regional StudiesIn 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.

GRADUATESCHOOLS
■ Graduate School of TheologyThe Graduate School of Theology occupies a unique and important place as a center for religious studies in Japan where the number of institutions that offer opportunities to study religions academically is limited. The Graduate School of Theology provides programs of study leading to the degrees of Master of Theology and Doctor of Theology. The M.Th. 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 coexistence among diverse religious traditions.
http://theo.doshisha.ac.jp/en
■ Graduate School of LettersThe 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?
https://www.doshisha.ac.jp/en/academics/graduate/letters.html
■ Graduate School of Social StudiesGlobalization and information literacy, regional conflicts and terrorism, labour alienation and unemployment, low birth-rate, the ageing population and the changing family system, changes in education and personality development for the next generation――these changes in society have a fundamental influence on human beings and their way of life. Social Studies, at the graduate level, attempts to comprehensively investigate these social changes and to systematically understand the restructuring of the complex framework of society. The ultimate goal for graduate students is to acquire methodological skills for examining issues from a professional as well as a humanistic perspective in areas such as: relationships between individuals and society; welfare problems; interpersonal relationship in the work environment; cultural and educational issues in personality development; mass media as a reflection of society. With the five majors of Social Welfare, Media Studies, Education, Sociology and Industrial Relations, the Graduate School of Social Studies serves as the University headquarters for humanistic studies of social sciences.

■ Graduate School of Brain ScienceOur 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, and ion channels. 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.

■ Law SchoolDoshisha Law School was opened in April 2004 and offers a rigorous program featuring lectures, small group seminars and active participation by students in classroom discussions. The teaching staff includes renowned scholars and experienced practitioners. For the 2015 academic year, 70 students have been granted admittance to the law school. Of these, 50 students who demonstrated an adequate foundational knowledge of law entered a two year program, with another 20 being admitted to a three year program that assumes no knowledge of law at all, and makes the legal profession accessible to people from different backgrounds. Since the 2014 academic year Doshisha Law School has offered a special admissions process for non-Japanese students. However, regulations require that all law school applicants take the nationwide law school aptitude exam and submit the results as part of the admissions process. This exam (held in May each year), together with most components of the Doshisha law program as well as the national bar exam are conducted exclusively in Japanese. Foreign applicants would thus need to have the ability to speak, read and write Japanese at a graduate-school level.

In addition, we are
undertaking various efforts to recruit overseas students, support our students while they are studying overseas, and provide on-site support to members of our faculties while they are overseas.

OUTBOUND PROGRAMS
Doshisha 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.
■ Student Exchange ProgramsThrough Student Exchange Program, Doshisha students are currently able to study at 138 partner institutions in 34 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.
■ Summer and Spring ProgramsDoshisha University offers intensive overseas language programs, during summer in England, U.S., Canada, Ireland, Philippines, Australia, Germany, France, China, Mexico, Russia and Korea, and during spring in U.S., Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Germany, France, China, Spain and Korea. 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 Manoa 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.

SCHOLARSHIPS
Doshisha University Reduced-Tuition for Self-Funded International Students (Admission fee, fee for Educational Support, Lab/Practical fees, and fees for academic associations are not included.)
SIED is an abbreviation for Student Staff for Intercultural Events at Doshisha, a student organization that holds various types of intercultural event under the Office of International Students (OIS). There are about 20 staff members on Imadegawa and Kyotanabe campuses. Despite many overseas students coming to Doshisha University, local students feel that they have few opportunities to interact with them. SIED was established to fill in this gap and to promote internationalization among students. The staff members plan and manage intercultural events by themselves from students’ point of view. If you are interested in intercultural events by SIED, do not hesitate to come and join them.
