In essence, the University is the oldestinstitution in the field of international studies inJapan, first constituted in 1899 as anindependent educational and research institutionas Tokyo Gaikokugo Gakko (Tokyo School ofForeign Languages), but with more distantantecedents in a government institute fortranslation, Bansho Shirabesho (Institute forResearch of Foreign Documents) whose historycan be traced back as far as 1857. With a focuson the translation of books from Europeanlanguages (in particular, Portuguese, Spanish,and, latterly, Dutch, English, German andFrench), this Institute played a key role as aunique window on the outside world duringJapan's period of isolation from other countries.The work of the Institute may be said to haveprepared the ground for the massive influx ofWestern ideas occasioned by the MeijiRestoration of 1868, following which--addingeducational functions to its previous research-oriented mission--the Institute consolidated itsleading role as a focal point for internationalstudies and exchange. The name "Tokyo Schoolof Foreign Languages" was first applied in1873. After twelve years during which theSchool was absorbed within the TokyoCommercial School, it was restored in 1897, andre-established on a firm footing as anindependent educational institution in 1899.During the Second World War, the Universitywas renamed "Tokyo College of ForeignAffairs," and in 1949 the University gained itspresent name: "Tokyo University of ForeignStudies."

The University has maintained a focus on thelanguages and societies of Europe and theAmericas (with current provision forundergraduate and graduate studies in thefollowing language-related areas: English,German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese,Russian, and the two recent additions of Polishand Czech). At the same time, the Universityhas continuously developed and now providesstrongly for Middle Eastern and Asian studies,with studies related to Chinese (since 1899) andHindi (since 1911) having been establishedrelatively early on in the University's history,and current provision also including Korean,Mongolian, Indonesian, Malaysian, Philippine,Thai, Laotian, Vietnamese, Cambodian,Burmese, Urdu, Arabic, Persian and Turkishstudies. In addition, Japanese studies have beencatered for since 1968, under the impetus of aperceived need for international exchange withnon-Japanese students. In 1964, the Institute forthe Study of the Languages and Cultures of Asiaand Africa was affiliated with the University as

a research facility to be used by personnel at allnational institutions of higher learning. TheUniversity also contains within its organization(although not within its central campus) theJapanese Language Center for InternationalStudents, a national facility providingpreparatory Japanese language training forstudents from abroad and engaging in researchand materials development for the purpose ofcontributing significantly to the education ofnon-Japanese students in Japan.

In earlier days, research and teaching at theUniversity was focused mainly on languagedescription and literary studies, but since the1960s linguistics, culture and area studies havegained increasing importance. While theUniversity continues to maintain its traditionalemphasis on intensive language study as aprelude to further studies based on primarysources in the language of specialization, amajor reform of the undergraduate curriculum in1995 has introduced a greater emphasis on earlydevelopment of the discipline-related knowledgeand abilities needed to pursue specializedstudies in a particular field of interest. Apartfrom majoring in a language area ofspecialization, undergraduate students nowchoose to follow one of three discipline-basedprograms: in language and information studies,culture and literary studies, or area andinternational studies.

Having reached the milestone of 1999, the100th anniversary of its independence as well asthe 126th anniversary of its originalestablishment, and with an imminent move to amodern, expanded campus, Tokyo University ofForeign Studies is uniquely placed to maintainits leading role as a center of excellence ininternational studies, research and exchange intoand beyond the 21st century.

The international atmosphere of TUFS isconsiderably enhanced by the large numbers ofstudents from other countries who choose tostudy here. Recently the ISEPTUFS program(described below) has made it possible forstudents from partner institutions to stay for arelatively short period and gain credits forcourses which can be transferred to their homeuniversity, while the well-established JapaneseStudies course for international studentscontinues to produce graduates of high calibrewho frequently go on to assume positions ofresponsibility in their home countries,strengthening these countries' links with Japan.

Undergraduate studentsAs of May 1999 there are 127 internationalstudents enrolled in undergraduate programs atTUFS, almost all of whom are taking theJapanese Studies course. There are specialprocedures for admission to undergraduatestudies for international students, which aredescribed in detail on p. 11. Currently themajority of students are from China or theRepublic of Korea, but past and present studentshave come from various parts of the world.Many graduates of the Japanese Studies coursehave returned to their home countries to take upJapanese teaching posts in their home countries,often at tertiary level.

ISEPTUFSThe International Student Exchange Program ofTokyo University of Foreign Studies(ISEPTUFS) is designed to give students frominternational partner institutions (see p. 36) anopportunity to study at TUFS by enrolling in aspecial one-year academic program. This is anew program of courses taught in English andother foreign languages and aims to fosterinternational exchange among students ofdifferent nationalities by providing anopportunity for foreign students to live andstudy in Japan. It is also intended to providestudents with the valuable chance to meet andbuild friendships with students from all over theworld. Currently 31 students are enrolled in thisprogram. ISEPTUFS will be linked into theUMAP (University Mobility in Asia and thePacific) credit transfer scheme in 2000.

Graduate studentsThere are currently a total of 148 internationalstudents enrolled in graduate programs at TUFS(117 in the Master's Program and 31 in theDoctoral Program). Out of this total, 21 are inreceipt of Japanese government scholarships.

Other research and study arrangementsThere are a number of other arrangements forstudying at TUFS as an international student,including as a research student under thepersonal supervision of a member of theacademic staff (currently there are 159 studentsin this category at TUFS) or as a Japanesestudies or teacher training student.

Welcoming international studentsThe Student Exchange Division of theUniversity looks after international students atthe Nishigahara campus, and arranges numerousexcursions, activities, symposia andinternational exchange activities with localcommunity organizations for such students.There is also an International Hall of residence(see p. 31) which provides accommodation at areasonable price for some students.

Japanese Language Center for International StudentsThis Center (which is located away from thecentral campus, in Fuchu) is described in detailon pp. 24-27 of this guide. One of the mainfunctions of the Center is to provideinternational students on Japanese Governmentscholarships with a six month or one year courseof preparatory education (with a focus onJapanese language development) prior to theirentrance into a Japanese national university.Currently there are 70 international studentstaking courses at the Center.

Students studying at theCenter fall into two main categories: those whogo on to undergraduate programs and those whogo on to graduate programs. The former residein a school dormitory (total occupancy of 60) onthe campus and study at the Center for the entire

academic year, while the latter take a six-monthintensive program in the Japanese language. Thecourses offered include intensive training in theJapanese language and, for the pre-undergraduate students, basic courses in majoracademic fields necessary for pursuingundergraduate studies.

The division also conducts research todevelop effective teaching methods andmaterials, including CALL (Computer-AssistedLanguage Learning) materials and various typesof audio-visual aid.

Main ActivitiesILCAA was founded on April 1, 1964,following a recommendation by the ScienceCouncil of Japan in 1961. It was the first inter-university national research institution to bedesignated in the humanities and social sciences,and its primary purpose is to promote multi-disciplinary research on languages and culturesof Asia and Africa, compilation of dictionaries,and education relating to those languages.

In addition to supporting individual researchby institute members, ILCAA encourages inter-university scholarship and engages in researchprojects involving non-members.

Every year ILCAA offers short-term intensivelanguage courses in three Asian and Africanlanguages to members of the general public. (Onaverage, 10 students undertake 150 hours ineach language.)

Since overseas field research is alsoencouraged, young scholars of ILCAA areenabled to spend two years abroad for thepurpose of developing their language skills andconducting research in their areas of study.

The Institute underwent reorganization in1991, whereby sixteen small sections wereintegrated into four major sections, with anexpansion in the section for non-Japanesevisiting faculty. This reform was designed tocater better for changing academic and socialneeds, social change in Asia and Africa, anddevelopment in research methods.

Computer facilitiesIn the past few years, the computer facilities inTUFS have been greatly improved. Theimprovement shows itself in two main areas.One is the opening of a classroom in whichlessons can be conducted using computers. Thisroom has thirty-two Macintosh computers, onwhich both Windows and MacOS can be run,with four laser printers and internet access. Inaddition, these computers can deal with most ofthe languages which students major in at TUFS.Students can also use the room for private studywhenever classes are not being held.

The other innovation is a new computer roomfor overseas students, where they can use e-mailfacilities, Web browsers, and other basicsoftware. The staff in this room help overseasstudents contact their friends and families athome across the world.
