The Department of Japanese Studies offers a Japanese Language and Culture study programme taught in Czech. The curriculum consists of mandatory practical courses in the Japanese language and writing and theoretical courses in Japanese history, literature, and society. A broad offer of selective courses on the Japanese cultural background (religion, culture, art, society, politics, economy, film, and theatre) and selective courses in Japanese language theory provide a richly varied curriculum.

The majority of our students also take advantage of the opportunity to study abroad at one of the many Japanese universities Masaryk University has an agreement with. We also provide a number of courses taught in English, that are open for domestic as well as foreign students. The list of cooperating universities and list of courses we provide in English can be found below.
