Intercultural communication also requires knowledge and a sufficient understanding of society and culture. The Department of Luso-Brazilian Studies offers a comprehensive study of Portuguese-speaking regions, not just Portugal and Brazil, but the skills developed in this course can be applied to any other areas where Portuguese is spoken.   What we look for in our students is the courage to explore the unknown. Passion for sailing into the turbulent, ever-changing sea of modern international society mirrors the spirit of Portuguese explorers who led the Age of Discovery 500 years ago. The Department of Luso-Brazilian Studies aims to nurture people who can be active not only in the business world but also in a wide range of fields such as NGOs and NPOs. Portuguese-speaking countries around the world The term Portuguese-speaking countries, which refers to countries and regions where the Portuguese language is spoken, covers four continents on the globe. This is a result of the history of Portugal during the Age of Discovery, when the country&＃8217;s power and culture traveled across the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, eventually ending up in Japan. The Department of Luso-Brazilian Studies offers courses such as Introduction to Lusophone Studies and other courses that provide knowledge about the Portuguese-speaking world in Portugal, Brazil, Portuguese-speaking Africa, and Asia. Curriculum In the first and second years, students take Basic Portuguese classes, which consist of six lessons per week focusing on grammar, conversation, composition, and reading, to thoroughly learn the basics of the Portuguese language. The following two courses are Fundamentals of the Portuguese Language and Basic Portuguese Language. In the third and fourth years, students choose one of nine research courses and focus on a group of highly specialized subjects, along with a series of practical subjects to acquire functional skills with a view to advanced communication and presentation in Portuguese. In the fourth year, students work on their graduation thesis and graduation research as the culmination of their studies in the Seminar. as of 2022 View larger image * Please refer to the syllabus for more information on the courses.

Through conversation, composition, grammar, and reading comprehension (reading at lectures and speed), the program aims to improve students&＃8217; ability to use the four Portuguese language skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Classes are conducted in a variety of ways to meet the objectives of each class, including lectures, oral repetitions, group work, and presentations, but in all classes, independent study by the students is important. [First Major, Compulsory Subjects (Comprehensive Portuguese)] Using the basic academic skills of Portuguese acquired in the first and second years, students will further acquire practical and applied Portuguese language skills. Classes will be conducted primarily in the form of communication, presentations, and debates. Many of the teachers in charge are native speakers, and therefore the language used is mainly Portuguese. On the other hand, classes taught by Japanese instructors include more advanced literature reading and lectures on advanced grammar.
