The Department of Law is not about rote memorization of the Six Legal Codes of Japan. Students here benefit from Keio’s constantly evolving jurisprudence, which stays in step with the times, informed by discussions between students and faculty. For studying the latest legal developments, look no further than the Department of Law.

Politics is the study of “people.” Even if we don’t always agree, diverse perspectives are what we need to build a society where people can connect and share their ideas with one another. And the Department of Political Science is no different. Here, the unique personalities of each of our students shine through as they help each other grow as individuals.

Cross-Listed Courses

Cross-listed courses are a unique aspect of the Faculty of Law curriculum, with students taking a systematic rather than comprehensive approach to liberal arts courses. Through seminars on the humanities and natural sciences, students can further develop and deepen their understanding, and they can also earn a sub-major after completing specific academic requirements in an area after four years of study.
