Establishment Purposes

The increase of social, economic, cultural and trade between Taiwan and Japan has led Chang Jung Christian University’s Department of Applied Japanese  to fulfil a niche left empty by traditional language courses offered by other tertiary education institutions. Rather than  focusing solely on the literature and the linguistics aspect, as these and other single areas of research are no longer in line with today’s market demand, this department aims to educate the students with applied courses, which will equip them for future career paths in politics, economics, finance, social sciences and other fields for which there is market demand.

Therefore, the Department of Applied Japanese devotes itself to the cultivation of political, economic, social and cultural understanding of Japan,  as well as Japanese language ability to respond to the demand for Taiwanese and Japanese exchanges. Students will be equipped with good foreign language abilities as well as the professional knowledge required for research and teaching.
