This course will introduce the various model organisms that are used in biomedical research and discuss why these particular animals were chosen as models, what kind of research they are used for, and what we can learn from studying them. Ethical issues surrounding the use of animals in research will also be discussed. Students will be expected to read scientific journal articles and participate in class discussions. This class will be taught in English and students will be expected to speak in English and complete assignments in English.

Language is a rich and complex system that is unique to the human species and marks us as distinct from other animals. Despite being born without it, the vast majority of humans manage to master at least one language in their early years. Furthermore, it is possible that the majority of people speak more than one language (Cook, 2008). During this course, students will be introduced to several theories that attempt to explain how languages are acquired, both first (L1) and second (L2) languages. Students will also consider language learning in terms of specific skills, consisting of vocabulary knowledge, reading, listening, and speaking. Finally, students will investigate a number of differences between people and between language-learning settings that have been shown to influence the acquisition of these skills. In the spirit of inclusivity promoted by the SDGs, research involving non-English languages, including Japanese and Spanish, will be studied. By the end of the course, students will have a greater understanding of how humans acquire languages.

The course will take an intersectional approach to why we commonly find an underrepresentation of women in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields. The course will begin by addressing our own unconscious biases and stereotypes, and question the research behind male and female differences. We will cover the brief history of the underrepresentation of minorities and explore research articles on why and how women and other minorities have been excluded from STEM fields. Students will be expected to read scientific articles, discuss them, and apply those concepts to examine their own social environments.

This module aims to investigate aspects of the history of past pandemics or "plagues" and how they have impacted on society. We will attempt to answer questions such as: Where do plagues come from? How do they spread? What counter measures have been taken in response to plagues throughout history? What have been the attitudes of society to victims of plague, and how have these changed? Finally, we will look at how infectious diseases have been significant factors in some major historical events. Part of the module will include student-led analysis of past pandemics. These may be historical but could also include more recent and emerging diseases such as Ebola and Zika virus.

Advanced Development Microeconomics
The objective of this course (ADM) is (1) to have a good understanding of the literature of development microeconomics, and (2) to develop a good research idea and design. The course is for students who seek a research career and are developing their research project. The course mainly discusses empirical papers on selected topics. Both experimental and quasi-experimental studies are covered. Students write referee reports, conduct a replication project, and develop a proposal for their empirical research. This lecture course is offered in English. All written assignments must be written in English (no exceptions).

Advanced Industrial Organization
This course is the introductory sequence in graduate-level industrial organization, focusing on empirical methods and applications of research in Industrial Organization. It examines analytical frameworks and econometric tools often used to investigate real-world markets – markets that are rarely perfectly competitive or strictly monopolistic. Instead, they feature strategic interactions among dominant firms, intermediaries and consumers, where outcomes are often driven by endogeneity and simultaneity.
Recognizing the importance of bridging theory and practice, this year’s syllabus incorporates an enriched series of guest lectures, who will share their experiences and discuss real-world challenges. These sessions will provide firsthand perspectives on regulatory frameworks, market dynamics, and strategic decision-making in complex industrial environments.
