| Description: |
Grounded on new concepts in international economic thought, the Economics and Business Administration program encourages research that incorporates both Western and Eastern economic thought, as well as investigates principles of economic activity from both humanistic and ethical perspectives. To make students as practically oriented as possible, both of the Master and Doctoral programs emphasize scholarly, problematic and policy approaches. This is particularly evident in the Master program, which is divided into two major fields: economic management, which involves specialized study, and a policy-management major, which emphasizes problem-solving. The programs are suitable both for persons interested in pursuing advanced research, and for those who want to develop practical skills for the business world.
The Doctoral program is designed to nurture a higher level of academic investigation and problem-solving ability than the Master''''s program. Doctoral students engage in scholarly discussions and make presentations in research seminars, and, with assistance from their committee members, devote much of their time to the writing of their doctoral dissertations.

| Description: |
The Graduate School of Policy and Management at Doshisha University opened its door in April 1995. It is an entirely new form of graduate school in that its mission is to produce human resources with advanced specialist knowledge in a broad range of disciplines. Expertise acquired in the School enables students to seek solutions to the increasingly diverse and complex problems that have confronted modern society .
For the master''''s program, we have developed a strong research and education system with the goal of cultivating the specialist skills demanded by society. With the doctoral program, we strive to produce citizens who have mastered specialist knowledge and skills and acquired the capacity to systematically put those strengths to work. It is another important goal of the Graduate School of Policy and Management to provide individuals with years of real-world career experience in the public or private sector with opportunities to study and develop theories based on their experience.
To achieve these objectives, the school has established five course tracks in its General Policy Science Course. This enables students to a track that matches with issues related to their interests . In the 2009 academic year, we introduced the Technology and Innovative Management Course(integrated doctoral program).
