The master’s programme in Japanology aims at preparing students for a thorough examination of modern and contemporary Japan from the perspectives of social science and cultural studies. The investigation of current social and cultural issues, tendencies and phenomena in the area of Japanology is based on sound knowledge of Japanese language and scripts. In addition to specialised knowledge of regional studies, the master’s programme also equips students with specialised knowledge of history of science and theoretical-methodological competences. Therefore, graduates are able to communicate these areas of specialisation in a sophisticated manner both orally and in writing, and conduct independent academic research on selected thematic areas.
