BS Human Sciences

Modern society contains complex aspects that cannot be grasped by a fixed intellectual framework. Given the changes brought on by globalization, economic and information disparity, large-scale natural disasters, information technology, genetic manipulation, and more, our human sensibilities, values, and lifestyles are also undergoing drastic shifts and diversification. In view of such changes, the mission of the Department of Human Sciences is to focus on understanding and solving problems related to society, culture, and nature, to grasp the diversity of human nature, and to construct, from an interdisciplinary perspective, new intellectual frameworks that support such diversity.
