The Bachelor of Cultural Representation Studies at the University of Tokyo's Faculty of Arts and Sciences engages students in a pioneering and interdisciplinary approach to analyzing cultural phenomena, the arts, and various forms of artistic representation. Established in 1986 on Komaba Campus, the program emphasizes critical and innovative study methods, drawing from anthropology, comparative literature, and analysis of representation. Students participate in symposiums, seminars, and practical projects, building bridges between academic research and the real worlds of arts and culture. The curriculum readies students for the complexities of contemporary society, aiming for 'broad and deep' knowledge in cultural studies.
