Magisterium w Międzynarodowych Naukach Liberalnych

The Faculty’s academic programs are designed to equip graduates with flexible and critical thinking, linguistic abilities, and cultural skills necessary to take the lead in bridging differences and promoting understanding in today’s increasingly multicultural and complex world.

Diversity in the FLA student body, comprised of over fifty nationalities, including students educated at Japanese and international high schools in Japan, as well as both degree students and exchange students from abroad, provides an ideal environment for achieving the FLA’s educational mission.

The worldwide spread of the new coronavirus infection is forcing changes in the way university education should be. In particular, the restriction of real overseas exchanges was a pain for Sophia University, which promotes globalization, but we provided support not only to international students in Japan but also overseas, centered on our overseas bases. In particular, the ASEAN Hub Center in Bangkok, which established a business company with the aim of further revitalizing educational functions from last year, is working to continue its business by introducing complete online classes.

The biggest change caused by the Corona disaster is the rapid progress of online access at universities around the world. As a result, we can expect unprecedented research exchanges, such as remotely inviting professors who conduct cutting-edge research at overseas universities. Our university is also working to establish such a possibility as a system.
