ゼミ紹介
In principle, students’ research topics are connected to my two main research areas: 1) war memories/historical consciousness, 2) tourism studies (especially contents tourism). However, other closely linked topics (e.g. media studies) are also accepted. In principle, 10 students are accepted per year. If the Seminar is over-subscribed, students will be selected according to their grades in the classes listed below (see 受講上の注意など) and their thesis research proposal. If places are still available, students may be accepted with credits in only one of the above classes or on topics other than war memories / tourism. Students may write their thesis in English or Japanese. Non-native Japanese speakers writing in Japanese must make their own arrangements for getting their Japanese proofread. Instruction will be in English and/or Japanese. For more ideas on possible research areas, see my online Research and Teaching Resource "War Memory Tourism". https://war-memory-tourism.net To learn more about how the seminar is currently operating, see: https://philipseaton.net/undergraduate-teaching/graduation-thesis-seminar/
