Degree in Japanese at North Central College Illinois
The nation that gave us Pokemon, karate and karaoke is also one of the key players in the new global society. North Central College is one of the few colleges and universities in Illinois to offer a major in Japanese.
Our program aims to develop your proficiency in communication. You’ll find that classroom time flies by! Students also find that a major or minor in Japanese is a great complement to majors in East Asian Studies, Global Studies and many others. Also, don’t forget that the Language Resource Center on campus provides access to 24 hours/day of Japanese television, computerized writing tablets for Japanese characters, and other opportunities to practice your language skills.
Our location near Chicago gives you wonderful access to a wide range of Japan-related opportunities. In addition, we strongly encourage all of our students of Japanese to round out their experience by participating in several exciting study abroad opportunities.
