Program Description

In 2010, the Graduate School of Business Administration starts a new curriculum, moving from the previous two-course system to a new five-course system in order to clarify study goals. The five courses are: 1) The “Academic Course”, to foster researchers, 2) The “Business Course”, to deepen both theoretical and practical knowledge of business administration, 3) The “Japan-China Joint Business Course”, specializing in Chinese business practices, 4) The “Business Course for Working People”, where businesspeople can develop their working experience through further study, and 5) The “Research Course for Working People”, to seek solutions to diverse problems that businesspeople face at work.

In the Graduate School of Business Administration there are many professors with diverse business experience so students are able to find practical solutions to their day-to-day business problems as well as theoretical foundations for their business practices.

About the School

Ryukoku University is committed to cultivating humans who can “Pursue the truth, Live for the truth, and Manifest the truth”.

Education at Ryukoku University will bring depth and breadth to students’ lives. During their life at Ryukoku University, students will come to realize how they have been looking at the world only through their colored glasses and what a small world they have been in.

Ryukoku University has a long history dating back to the Gakuryo (a Buddhist seminary) academy that was established in the precinct of Nishi-Hongwanji Temple in 1639. Therefore, Ryukoku University has the longest history of university education and research in Japan, spanning over 380 years.

Over the course of our long tradition, Ryukoku University has cultivated the trait of having a deep insight into human life, inspired by the way of life of Shinran Shonin who lived through the tempestuous Kamakura period and established the Jodo Shinshu sect. Since its inception, Ryukoku University has continuously adhered to the spirit of Jodo Shinshu as its founding spirit.

For young people, tradition may sound old-fashioned. However, tradition will not be sustained unless we apply its philosophy when we face the realities of society in our day-to-day life. As we live through the realities of life that are filled with contradictions and problems, our tradition continues to be renewed.

Ryukoku University’s trait to respect “innovation” and “ambition” is clearly born from its tradition. The creation of new opportunities for knowledge is one of the greatest features that Ryukoku University is proud of, as demonstrated by the great educational reformation during the Meiji period, the Otani Expedition known for its research exploration in the Silk Road, projects to promote advanced research during the post-war period, and the founding of the first Faculty of Science and Engineering, as well as the first Faculty of Agriculture in Buddhist universities in Japan. However, the greatest characteristic of Ryukoku University is its atmosphere to create an environment to live harmoniously with others.

In the modern world, people are becoming more and more exclusive of others. But at Ryukoku University, we emphasize altruism and foster the spirit of cherishing all lives. “Altruism” is the opposite of “exclusiveness”. Buddhism has long been cultivating the spirit of altruism and transmitting its importance. Our students will be made aware of the importance of mutual help and support as they learn at Ryukoku University. True learning begins when a student realizes how ignorant they have been about the true meanings of life. Ryukoku University educates students who will aspire to lead a life of truth, completely devoid of any falsehood and hypocrisy.
