The Center for Global Education and Japanese Studies(CGJ) hosted “Doshisha Summer Session 2024” conducted face-to-face for four weeks, from July 9 to August 6. This program was held at the Imadegawa campus in Kyoto for the first time in eight years, with 18 participants from China, the Czech Republic, Taiwan, and the United States.

In addition to Japanese language classes, the program offered classes on traditional culture and daily life in Kyoto, as well as off-campus classes to experience Kyoto and Japanese culture, including the Gion Festival.
With the aim of furthering the study of Japanese traditional culture, special classes by 10 guest speakers were also carried out. On the final day, each student gave a presentation in Japanese on a theme set according to his or her own interests.
During the period, more than 50 students (Both Students belonging to Doshisha University and Doshisha Women's College of Liberal Arts) also participated in classes as volunteer study partners, joining in conversation practice and other activities.


Students learned that there are people who are making great efforts with pride, love, responsibility, and a sense of duty to carry on Kyoto's traditional events and Kyoto's traditional industries, which are in danger of extinction. In addition, it was a unique experience for them to step into a traditional Kyoto machiya house, and they learned more than just “a cultural experience”
