Journal Studies in Media and Society

About the journal

The Media Professional Course began issuing its first journal, Studies in Language and Culture, in 2005. As the Course developed and expanded, reflecting a change of emphasis towards greater links with media industries and a concern for media-related social issues, the journal was re-launched in 2009 as Studies in Media and Society. The journal is published annually under the auspices of the Graduate School of Languages and Cultures. In its printed form the journal is distributed widely throughout Japan and overseas.
