MPhil Japanese Studies
Our MPhil Japanese Studies programme will enable you to carry out a piece of original research at a department that focuses on modern and contemporary Japan.
Japanese Studies was established at Manchester in 2007, and has quickly grown a large undergraduate programme with a small but expanding graduate cluster attached.
We offer supervision of postgraduate research projects connected to the broader issues of gender, education, religion, society and history.
In particular, we offer specialist supervision on mass culture, subcultural formations and cultural production, contemporary and modern religious organisations and movements, modern medical and educational and cultural history, and gender and women in culture, medicine, reproduction, and society.
Anthropological, sociological, textual and gender and cultural studies approaches are supported. There is a focus on cross-disciplinary research and co-supervision linking research in Japanese Studies with other disciplines.
