Graduate Program of Asian and African Studies (GPAAS)

As relations between Japan and Asian-African nations have developed, a graduate program specialized in Asian and African area studies has long been awaited. The Graduate Program of Asian and African Studies (GPAAS) at Ryukoku University is the only Masters Program focusing on Asian and African area studies among private Japanese universities. It is an interdepartmental program established in association with the three graduate schools of the departments of Law, Economics and Intercultural Communication. It offers human-focused education from the perspective of people in the Asian and African areas and students are guided in this common program by professors specializing in Asian and African affairs.
