Faculty of Letters
Since its foundation 370 years ago, the Faculty of Letters has been engaged in educational and research activities. The uniqueness of the faculty is its made-to-order curriculum which allows each student to select a range of classes from diverse subject matters, beyond the boundary of their own department and area of specialization, while they comprehensively study specialized courses.
While deepening communication with their professors, students cultivate the ability to seek, discover, pursue and solve issues. The culmination of their effort based on this study can be seen in their graduation theses in the fourth year. ;
