Please continue to regularly check the Announcements from University on the Doshisha University Electronic Tutorial System (DUET), the Doshisha University Web Portal, the websites of the university and your faculty/school/graduate school, etc., in order not to miss any important information or necessary notices from the university.

1.Confirmation of Class Type and Syllabus for Each Course

The following three types of classes are provided at the university: face-to-face; online (e-learning); and combination of face-to-face and online.

*From the Fall 2023 Semester, a capacity of a classroom allocated to each class is the same as the number of seats set in the classroom. Please take a class in the classroom stated in the syllabus if it’s a face-to-face class.

Depending on the course registration situation, the class types for courses are subject to change, and any such change might result in the revision of the syllabuses for the courses. In the case of a change in class type or syllabus, the faculty member in charge of the course will explain in class or via DUET message. Be sure to check DUET during the period from the end of course registration to the first day of the relevant course. If you wish to withdraw your application for the course due to such change, please complete the application withdrawal procedure within the above application withdrawal period. However, please note that even if you withdraw your application for a course, you cannot register for additional courses during the fall semester.

Infection Control Measures in Class

We will endeavor to ensure ventilation at the appropriate timing by installing a carbon dioxide meter in each classroom, opening classroom doors and windows, and operating ventilation equipment.
*Wear a mask if necessary at your own discretion not only against COVID-19, but also against hay fever, colds, etc. You may be required to wear a mask during, for example, a class which involves speaking in a situation where social distancing cannot be ensured.
*We will ensure that hand sanitizers remain available, for example, in the corridors in front of classrooms, so follow proper hand hygiene by using such sanitizers, washing your hands, or taking other appropriate measures.
*If you are engaged in an off-campus activity as part of a regular curriculum, such as practical training, field work, or a seminar training camp, please observe the infection control manual or other guidelines set by the facility for that activity. If you travel to the facility by means of public transportation, act appropriately depending on the situation, such as wearing a mask in a crowded train.

*Note: For classes provided by the Law School and the Graduate School of Business, separate notices will be released by the Law School Office and the Office of Graduate School of Business, respectively.
