Educational Courses

EPOK is divided into four distinct parts:

1. General Courses - Japan in Many Respects
2. General Courses - Japanese Language and Japanese Studies
3. Specific Courses
4. Independent Study

NB Independent Study is to conduct/participate in a research project on a specific theme or to study a specific subject/topic, related to a student's major field of study. Students individually pursue this course under the supervision of a particular professor of Okayama University in both cases. Please note, however, that there is a chance that an applicant is not able to pursue the particular theme due to the limited human resources of the university.    In such cases, those students may need to either change their theme or decide not to take Independent Study.
