2.2. Students develop analytical and critical thinking in areas, such as how Japan’s cultural background influences modern Japanese life, how to compare their own culture with the Japanese culture, or how Japanese culture relates to other world cultures in an age of global inter-relatedness.

Reflective Narrative:
Through taking various courses related to Japanese culture and social norms and perspectives, I have been able to understand the language as well as the culture behind it more than ever before. I have been taught the cultural and historic background for things that make what Japan is known as today, and with this knowledge I can also approach current day social and cultural issues with a new and more informed perspective.
