In the Technical Japanese Program we focus on methods for learning about Japanese technology, Japanese business practices, and the system from which Japanese technology and products emerge. Courses in technical Japanese are available for people with and without previous experience with the Japanese language. Our courses are offered to students on campus and to professionals anywhere in the world via distance education technology.
