Japanese Studies<\/h1><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Scholarship on Japan and training in Japanese language have a long history at Earlham, and our connections with Japan run deep. For more than 50 years, Earlham has been a leader in undergraduate education focused on Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japanese studies at Earlham is about encountering the complex history, society and culture that both comprise and are embodied in the nation of Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to a cross-disciplinary curriculum on campus, Earlham offers two study-abroad programs in Japan: Japan Study and Studies in Cross-Cultural Education (SICE)<\/a> and a double-degree program with Waseda University<\/a>. Earlham also houses the Institute for Education on Japan<\/a>, which coordinates all Japan-related outreach activities conducted by the College and offers additional learning and post-grad opportunities, including placements as an Assistant Language Teacher<\/a> in Morioka or as a teacher at the Friends School in Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
