The Far East has fascinated many and Japan is one of the most culturally rich destinations. The country of the rising sun prides itself on its traditional art, tea ceremonies, garden arrangements, poetry, calligraphy, food and unique culture. Japanese Studies deal with the culture and society of Japan from its beginning to the present day, which includes the Japanese history, language, art, philosophy, literature, music, economy and politics. Japanese Studies are a multidisciplinary academic field that typically teaches subjects like Japanese Language, Japanese Religions, Japanese Cultural History, Asian Literatures, Geography of East Asia, Government & Politics of Asia, Traditional and Modern Japan, as well as topics like Understanding Manga and Anime, Contemporary Japanese Cinema, Gender and Society in Contemporary Japan, and Japanese Nation and Identity. A degree course in Japanese Studies is perfect for those who have a passion for Japanese culture and are interested in developing professional skills in the field. Japanese Studies graduates can expect a variety of career prospects, some of which include positions in media, PR, advertizing, communications, teaching, translation, international relations and more.
