Faculties and Departments
In the Faculty of Creation and Representation, students gain the knowledge and tools they need to express themselves through language, media, and other means, with the goal of effectively addressing real social issues through a rich palette of self-expression and communicative power. Success in these areas requires expert knowledge and skill as well as the core competencies: expressiveness, creativity, and the ability to communicate effectively. Developing these strengths gives them the power to get their message across with impact and flair.
Thanks to e-mail and social media, the written word has become an essential part of our lives today. Amid this environment, the ability to express one’s thoughts in one’s own words is a great advantage. Students who major in Literary Arts learn about language from the perspectives of both sensibility and theory, thereby gaining a rich power of expression and abundant creativity. Professionals with a wealth of experience lead classes brimming with originality, providing the guidance required to enable each and every student to demonstrate their individuality. Rather than being aimed solely at those who aspire to become professional authors and writers, this major cultivates language artists able to move people with the words they weave and play an active role in a variety of other fields as well.
Students study how to capture the needs of the times and modes of expression using various media, as well as developing the planning, conceptual, and presentation skills needed in a media-based society. After graduating, students will have the skills necessary to work in such industries as media and content, broadcasting, and culture, and at governmental organizations, educational institutions, and NPOs.
The goal of this major is to use visual presentation to accurately communicate useful information. As such, students will learn not only about media communication techniques, but also about the social responsibility of people in the media. They will also gain a deeper understanding of the content that they should convey and the significance of communication itself. Outstanding, attention-grabbing work combines excellent production with an astute insight into the problems of modern society and the ability to accurately capture the needs of the times. It is by gaining a good balance of learning in all these areas that students will be able to become information providers.
