Description

This is a hybrid course. It is available to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. The course content, delivery and assessment will be identical for both groups of students.

Subject Area: Japanese Studies

This course provides an opportunity for students to learn how to interact successfully when working and doing business with Japanese people. It involves understanding Japanese corporate culture, business manners and customs, and building communication skills. Communication skills are developed through expansion of 'Keigo’ (polite expressions) usage, vocabulary, and expressions used specifically in commercial settings. Students will also examine challenges they may encounter in their communication in commercial settings and analyse the solution in such situations.
