Class Status within
Liberal Arts Education | As the diversification of the study in high school has progressed, the mentality of new students has also been diversified. On the other hand, in the academic studies in university, students are required to explore and discuss your own answers to the problems that may not have given answers, based on the logical thinking and evidence.
In the Introductory Seminar, we provide the opportunities to familiarize with the academic studies and aim to stimulate the communication among students and between students and instructors.
