Mastering a language unlocks access to new cultural perspectives. Our BA Japanese Studies program helps you achieve near-native fluency in Japanese while exploring Japan's rich heritage. You'll select from diverse course options covering Japanese history, modern society, and cultural elements like film, pop culture, manga, and animation.
We welcome applicants at all Japanese proficiency levels, from absolute beginners to advanced speakers, with flexible entry requirements.
The Foundation Year option provides thorough preparation for university-level studies. This pathway suits those returning to education after a break, students without prior subject knowledge, or applicants who narrowly missed entry requirements for their preferred bachelor's program.
