Japanese

专业介绍

The Department of Asian Languages and Literature offers an undergraduate major and minor in Japanese. In the major and minor, students will develop their ability to read, write, and speak Japanese and will combine those language skills with an understanding and appreciation of the literature, linguistics, and culture associated with the language. Students are encouraged to explore wider interests by taking courses in other units and to take advantage of numerous study abroad opportunities. A popular option for many undergraduates at the University of Washington is to combine a major in Japanese with a second major from another department, such as Computer Science, Business Administration, or International Studies. Graduates of the Department go on to a wide variety of careers, reflecting the indispensability of knowledge of Asian languages and cultures in our increasingly interconnected world.
