Message
The Department of the Scientific Study of Children aims primarily to cultivate childcare workers (nursery teachers and kindergarten teachers). It cultivates people who go beyond obtaining qualifications and who will consider, act, rejoice, and work hard for the sake of children. With its systematic curriculum, highly experienced teaching faculty, and learning spaces, the department is ideal for students who aspire to work in the field of childcare. Students whose motivation is ignited are sure to become childcare professionals equipped with broad general knowledge, creative practical abilities, and rich sensibilities in their four years of study.
With its tradition of music teaching, this department offers classes in vocal training, instruments, and orchestral music, as well as an extensive range of music-related events. Students are also able to study natural environment education directly, taking advantage of the undeveloped woodland and biotopes on the University grounds. Learn together in an environment surrounded by music and nature.
