The Digital Humanities Center for Japanese Arts and Cultures, Ritsumeikan University is a Global Center of Excellent (COE) Program, designated by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science and Technology. Since the Center’s start in June 2007, we have been conducting education and research, aiming at creating a new type of the humanities that fully utilize information technologies so that we could bridge the gap between Japanese Studies in Japan and abroad, as well as lead the humanities in the future.The upcoming symposium is to summarize the Center’s research and educational activities in the past five years.
