The number of preschoolers and students with foreign roots continues to increase, and the development of human resources with the knowledge and expertise to support and instruct children has become an urgent issue. At Osaka Kyoiku University, we have prepared a minor program with the aim of responding to a variety of educational issues in response to changing times and providing opportunities to study specialized fields that are not covered in the major.The number of preschoolers and students with foreign roots continues to increase, and the development of human resources with the knowledge and expertise to support and instruct children has become an urgent issue.

"The Education Program for Children with Foreign Backgrounds" trains school teachers who can support these children, and the "Japanese Language Education Program" trains educational support personnel such as Japanese language teachers who play a part in team schools. This is a minor program aimed at training students.
Registration for the minor program takes place in April every year, so interested students should keep an eye out for information from the university.
This homepage introduces the specific initiatives and contents of each minor program.
