   Research can feel lonely. However, in my seminar, I try to incorporate a wide range of geographic perspectives that lie beyond the boundaries of academic fields, and I strive for a balance between desk work (reading and translating dissertations and academic books, data analysis) and fieldwork. I hope that you will be able to enjoy your research and that my seminars will help you to experience unique perspectives, topics, and fields.

​

   For this reason, my students conduct field surveys with different themes every year, regardless if they are master, doctoral or research students. In the academic year 2019, we focused on languages to consider things that have no shape and things that change shape. A field survey was conducted in the Tokyo neighborhood Daikanyama with the linguistic landscape of the city as a keyword for this research (for details, see ELiUS).

   In the academic year 2020, students in my seminar are working on the following topics.
