Japanese Language and Culture Major: Refer to the EALC Major Requirements
Students entering with advanced language preparation may substitute alternate language units as necessary with departmental permission. JPN 101, JPN 102, and JPN 201 may be counted toward the degree, but not toward the major. Students who have completed JPN 308, JPN 309, JPN 311, JPN 314 or the equivalent may request to do an independent study using the Japanese language (JPN 350). Those who wish to do an independent study that does not require the Japanese language should register for JPN 250. An advisor should be chosen from within the department.

The Japanese minor consists of a minimum of five units of language or non-language courses at the 200-level or above with either JPN or EALC designations and normally includes JPN 201 and JPN 202. At least one course must be a non-language course and at least one course must be taken at the 300 level. Students must choose an advisor from within the Japanese program. Only one unit may be transferred from another institution to fulfill requirements for the minor.
