Internship
The Graduate School of Humanities aims to provide employment support to all students through internships, etc. To this end, the graduate school offers Practical Studies in Humanities and Humanities Internship, which are Common Subjects for the Graduate School of Humanities of master courses and doctor courses, respectively.
Practical Studies in Humanities involves lectures by company employees, graduates, and others on the role of graduate students with a humanities background in the business world, as well as class discussions about how knowledge in the humanities can be utilized in the real world, thereby raising students' awareness about working after graduation.
Humanities Internship lets students experience the whole internship process: searching for a suitable company, negotiating and participating in the internship, and creating a report after completion. Internships can last up to two weeks; through enabling students to experience what it is like in the business world, the course aims to help them develop the ability to come up with proposals for society by leveraging the skills they have acquired in graduate school.
*Details of how to take Practical Studies in Humanities and Humanities Internship will be uploaded to this page later.■syllabi

Common Subjects for the Graduate School of Humanities
Directed at interdiciplinary and social collaboration (Double-Wing Academic Architecture: DWAA)
From the 2021 academic year, Osaka University will advance a graduation education system of Double-Wing Academic Architecture (DWAA). This system is geared toward interdisciplinary and social collaboration, with the aim of nurturing doctoral professionals capable of generating social innovations across a wide range of fields not limited to academia.
DWAA is composed of three areas: "Deepening of Knowledge," "Fusion of Knowledge," and "Integration of Knowledge with Society."In addition to developing expert knowledge, which has been the focus of conventional graduate school education, one feature of this new system is expanding education in two new directions predicated on the acquisition of core expertise.
Osaka University has long offered a range of educational programs oriented toward the "Fusion of Knowledge" and the "Integration of Knowledge with Society." To provide students with more flexible choices, these programs have now been reorganized as "Intellectual Gymnastics Programs" (hereafter "Intellectual Gymnastics").
