Business Japanese I

This course aims to develop the practical communication skills to be used in the Japanese business settings as well as in other formal contexts in every part of life in Japan while deepening the understanding of Japanese business culture and etiquette. Students will practice in both linguistic and pragmatic skills to appropriately handle the situations that one is likely to encounter living and working in Japan, such as writing a resume, having job interviews, meeting with business partners, and so on. Another goal of the course is to develop overall Japanese skills through studying/researching about and discussing the current topics regarding the successes and challenges of globalizing Japanese businesses. Studies of intermediate/advanced grammar and expressions, vocabulary, kanji, and kanji compounds are integrated in the class activities.
