Students engaging in international fieldwork undertake on-the-ground investigation or data collection related to their individual research topics (e.g., the collection of primary data, which include the opinions of those on the ground and the collection of secondary data such as those found in museums or libraries). This class is adopted as a “global education subject (advanced)” (i.e., a mandatory subject for all students under the Doctor of Education program) and it aims to allow students to experience carrying out an investigation in an international institution (based in Japan or overseas), an overseas research body, or do field research overseas.
