Course Description

Our course is so designed as to help students see our home-centered daily activities in the overall context of natural science, social science, and humanities, thus knowing how to improve the quality of our domestic life. In more concrete terms, students are to acquire the knowledge and skills in clothing, food, and housing that are required of independent individuals, and to study such fundamentals as family, home economics and management, and child-care. Additionally, students pursue studies in life and environment with regard to the complex relationships between "human being and goods/products." We offer instructions in theory as well as in experiments and training in the above-mentioned fields of studies. Our objective is to produce elementary, junior high, and high school teachers, who study home economics teaching methodology and learn how to use their professional expertise in educational fields with outstanding leadership. We also aim to educate students to be good citizens, who play important roles in the private sector as well as in public service.
