Currently, our society’s problems are diversified, with various factors and backgrounds entangled together, and are growing more and more complex. Therefore, such social issues cannot be solved by knowledge of single specialization, but by an interdisciplinary approach with integrated knowledge of various fields.In this program, we promise to support doctoral students who wish to be pioneers of the next generation by conquering these social issues, originating new discipline of science, and practicing globally.
If you find any ambitions in your future, we will respond to them with this program.
Knock the door, Doshisha University doctoral students!
