The Postgraduate Diploma in Arts (PGDipArts) serves as an alternative pathway to the Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree. This program offers diverse Arts subject options, with the potential to incorporate a dissertation component. It's particularly suitable if you seek advanced academic work without a dissertation requirement, if your home country doesn't recognize honours degrees, or if you prefer flexible part-time study. You'll have opportunities to explore specialized courses and conduct independent research across various disciplines including: Japanese language studies, Linguistic analysis, Literary criticism, Historical research, Religious and social studies, Cultural and identity examinations, and Methods for teaching Japanese as a second language.
