One-Planet Relational Studies in Literature and Culture
ワンプラネト文学・文化関係学コース
As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of our world.
“One-Planet Relational Studies in Literature and Culture” in the B.A. program of "Comparative Culture" at the University of Tsukuba offers a new approach to research in literature and culture for students who are interested in the future of our planet, in understanding our globally shared problems and in finding creative solutions. The program focuses on global crises issues such as Global Warming, Aging Society, Refugee and Migration, Gender Equality, Discrimination, Poverty, Plastic Pollution, Nuclear Hazards, and Hunger, and reviews counteractive concepts such as Resiliency, Sustainability, Mindfulness, and Stewardship.
The course uses English as our global language for international communication and co-operation and offers students the chance to come together and engage in English-based international research and communication.
