Nagoya University Of Foreign Studies (NUFS)

In today’s globalizing society of co-existence between multiple languages and cultures, importance is attached not only to English as the global language but also to other languages. Just like languages, a stance of accepting multiple cultures is also seen as essential. In light of this social background, the School of Foreign Studies takes an academic approach to explore world languages and cultures. Students engage in academic learning regarding the languages, literature, cultures, societies, and other features of the linguistic area they major in, delving deep into the ways of thinking and behaviors of people with different cultural backgrounds. In addition to their major language, they also learn multiple languages to gain a multifaceted perspective and become global human resources with excellent language proficiency and interpersonal skills.
