Nagoya Gakuin University Aichi, Japan Ngu NAGOYA GAKUIN UNIVERSITY AICHI, JAPAN NGU Serve the society and people The f irst step towards a prosperous life is to set up a life goal. Serving the society and people was once regarded as a great virtue of human beings. What is happening now? Do you feel that everything is “centered on money” now? Have all the people who love their work and keep high moral values disappeared? The events that make people think so have been increasing continuously. In such a social environment, there are still some people pursuing the original high morality of human beings and Nagoya Gakuin University is still following the idea of “fearing God and loving people”. As one of the most important Christian teachings, “love your neighbor as you love yourself” is consistent with the basic teaching of this university. We want to educate our students to become virtuous and gentle people with care and love. Based on the spirit of ‘fearing God and loving people”, Nagoya Gakuin University develops the potentials of the students, discovers their values and dreams, and helps them determine their goals in life. With two campuses including Nagoya Campus and SETO Campus, Nagoya Gakuin University is a great place to study. Here, all the students can develop their skills in any fields they are interested in or good at. Together, let us start our journey of prosperous life now.

Klein worked to “educate young people that can become players in the global stage with abundant international educational resources and humanity education based on Christian belief”. The idea of Dr. Frederick C. Klein has been inherited as the education philosophy of the university. Nagoya Eiwa School was developed into Nagoya Middle School, and later Nagoya College, and fi nally Nagoya Gakuin University in 1964. Dr. Frederick C. Klein Dr. Frederick C. Klein was one of the clergymen sent to Japan by an American Methodist Protestant Group. He preached in Yokohama at fi rst and later moved to Nagoya where no protestant church had ever set any footprint before him. 1 Location and Environment JAPAN SAPPORO Nagoya Campus Nagoya City, situated in the center of Japan, is a leading center of Japanese industry with shop- floor production (monozukuri) manufacturers of machine tools and aircraft makers, including Toyota Motors. In addition, Nagoya is a cultural and traditional SENDAI N city with traditional arts, painting, tea ceremony and others. Nagoya Campus is in the center of Nagoya City located close to Atsuta Jingu Shrine and Shirotori TOKYO Garden, surrounded by lush greenery. AICHI KYOTO Seto Campus HIROSHIMA OSAKA Seto Campus is located about 20 kilometers from Nagoya City. Surrounded by the vast nature, we FUKUOKA can receive comfort from the green. Students here learn professional skills, leading-edge welfare, and rehabilitation with excellent facilities. Also, there is a chapel on the campus, which is the symbol of the university, and we hear the bell ring three times a day. This is an attractive place in harmony with the rich natural environment. SETO NAGOYA AICHI Prefecture 2 NAGOYA GAKUIN UNIVERSITY Atsuta-Jingu Shrine Shirotori Garden Nagoya TV Tower Midland Square Nagoya Castle 3 CIEP Center for International Exchange Programs At university we not only learn about academic subjects by taking courses, but we also learn about the world and about ourselves through interactions with teachers and students from different backgrounds. At NGU, the Center for International Exchange Programs (CIEP) facilitates this interaction by providing a variety of programs and opportunities for NGU students to improve their foreign language skills and to learn about other countries and cultures. We have short-term, one-semester and two-semester study abroad programs and we also have numerous internship programs designed to give students “hands-on” experience in their chosen fields. Also, each year CIEP welcomes 30-40 international students who come to NGU to study Japanese language at our Institute for Japanese Studies (IJS). NGU students and international students have numerous opportunities to meet, interact and learn from one another at events sponsored by CIEP. In these ways, CIEP performs a vital role in promoting international awareness among NGU students and exchange students from our many partner universities. Phillip R. Morrow Director, CIEP IJS Institute for Japanese Studies IJS programs, sanctioned under the School Education Law, provide Japanese language and area study courses for international students, as well as preparation for those students seeking admission to a regular degree program at a Japanese university. Nagoya Gakuin has been a wonderful experience for me! The classes are well structured and fun to attend, as well as being conveniently located. All of the teachers and faculty are nice and eager to help students with whatever they need, whether it’s needing a personal tutor for learning the language or trying to fi nd his or her way around the country. Being located in the city is a plus, too. We can hop on a train or walk and within minutes we are somewhere fun. Nagoya Gakuin is a great place to spend your study abroad trip in Japan! Lisa Smith Exchange Student from the Middle Tennessee State University, USA 4 NAGOYA GAKUIN UNIVERSITY CIEP Center for International Exchange Programs IJS courses JAPANESE Ⅰ Students will learn to use basic everyday conversation and learn to be able to write basic sentence structures they use orally (using about 300 kanji). JAPANESE Ⅱ This course prepares students for ordinary conversation so that they will be able to communicate socially, using, in particular, polite expressions. JAPANESE Ⅲ This course provides students with the ability to carry on natural conversation with a larger vocabulary and more complex structures, including keigo (honorifi c expressions.) The students will also receive training in reading and writing using up to 1000 kanji. JAPANESE Ⅳ This course is designed to give further practice so that students can have a good command of Japanese in different levels of speech. Practical training in reading newspapers, magazines, critiques, etc. is offered using approximately 1500 kanji. The course also aims to facilitate productive skills in writing on selected topics. JAPANESE Ⅴ This course is for students who have already passed the Japanese Profi ciency Test (Level 1) and/or those having equivalent ability. The course prepares students to make oral reports and discussions, and to converse fl uently with a good command of Japanese speech levels. Instruction in academic reading and writing will also be offered. JAPANESE LINGUISTICS In this course, linguistic aspects of Japanese will be discussed. The main purpose of this course is to develop the skill to analyze various aspects of natural languages through the study of Japanese. Students will take away a heightened interest in the Japanese language. Students are required to participate actively in the class. In spring, Japanese language in ancient and medieval period is surveyed. Kanji characters and World characters are also studied. In fall, the sounds and mechanisms of medieval Japanese and modern Japanese characteristics are focused. Some language matters about negative expression and aspect expression will be examined. JAPANESE RELIGION Ask your Japanese friend what his/her religion is and you will get an answer, “My religion is Buddhism (or Shintonism).” However, they do not say, “I belong to a Buddhism temple or a group.” Sometimes they even openly say that they are “atheists” or “religion-less”.
