Learning in Faculty of Letters
In Faculty of Letters, we study "human beings" through "language." This learning involves a multifaceted and comprehensive examination of human existence, lifestyles, culture, and history, approaching fundamental and holistic questions such as "What is a human being?" and "What does it mean to live well?" Based on the knowledge and ways of thinking acquired through this learning process, we cultivate the abilities and attitudes necessary to coexist with others. The motto of Faculty of Letters, "Think for Yourself, Think for the World," directly expresses this aim.
Faculty of Letters is a place that fosters the ability to identify and solve problems for the benefit of others and the world, while also cultivating individuals who know themselves, think for themselves, and act together with others.
