Declaration on the Occasion of the Opening of APU
Since the beginning of human history, human beings have attempted to create their own distinctive
cultures and develop civilizations in the various regions of the world. They have also had to overcome many
constraints and obstacles in order to achieve their goal of living in conditions of freedom, peace and
humanity.
The twentieth century was an era of rapid progress and unprecedented advance in the political, economical
and cultural fields, as human activity increasingly took place on a global scale. Through the experience of
the two World Wars, the United Nations and other international organizations were formed to enhance
cooperation in order to maintain peace and to promote international understanding.
Given that the 21st century will see the emergence of a global society, we firmly believe that coexistence
between mankind and nature, as well as between diverse cultures, will be indispensable for the peaceful
and sustainable development of the Asia Pacific region. This is why we are now establishing a university
here, to nurture the young talent and to create a new academic discipline which will help shape the region’s
future.
April 1, 2000 therefore marked the birth of the Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University, based on a vision of
freedom, peace and humanity, mutual international understanding, and the future shape of the Asia Pacific
region. The establishment of the University at Jumonjibaru, in Beppu City, has been made possible through
the cooperation of the people of Beppu and Oita Prefecture, together with many others both within and
outside Japan.
Our hope is that it will be a place where the young future leaders from countries and regions throughout
the world will come to study together, live together, and understand each other’s cultures and ways of life,
in pursuit of goals that are common to all mankind.
The Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University is hereby declared open.
April 1, 2000
The Ritsumeikan Charter
Ritsumeikan traces its roots to Prince Saionji’s private academy of the same name, established in 1869. It
was officially founded in 1900 by his protégé, Kojuro Nakagawa, as the Kyoto Hosei Gakko (Kyoto School of
Law and Politics), later to take on the name ″Ritsumeikan″. The name is derived from a passage in the
Jinxin chapter of the Discourses of Mencius, and means ″a place to establish one’s destiny through
cultivating one’s mind.″
Ritsumeikan’s founding ideals are ″freedom and innovation″ and reflecting upon its wartime experience, it
committed itself to a core educational philosophy of ″peace and democracy″ after World War II.
Ritsumeikan has faced the challenges of the times by pursuing an independent path to rise above adversity
and has become the comprehensive private educational institution that it is today through extensive
cooperation and support from both within and outside Japan.
Ritsumeikan, as a Japanese institution located in the Asia Pacific region, is committed to sincerely
reflecting upon history and to building an institution where many cultures coexist in the spirit of
international mutual understanding. Ritsumeikan will build relationships of trust, through research and
education, as well as sports and cultural activities, and establish its roots in the local community, to create
an academic institution open to international society. Ritsumeikan will strive to strengthen links with
society and promote its institutional development by fully utilizing the characteristics of a private academic
institution, the participation of its faculty, staff and students, and the support of alumni and parents, while
respecting the principles of autonomy, democracy, transparency, non-violence and justice.
Ritsumeikan will pursue the creation of universal values based on academic freedom and search for
solutions to the pressing issues facing humankind, with its educational endeavors based on its founding
spirit and educational ideals, bearing in mind ″to believe in the future, to live for the future″. Ritsumeikan
will foster learning and the development of individual talents in order to nurture just and ethical global
citizens. Ritsumeikan, as an institute of education and research, pledges to promote peace, democracy and
sustainable development in Japan and throughout the world, in keeping with the sprit of this Charter.

Credit Registration Limits
Seminar Subjects
There is a fixed number of credits that students may register up to each semester. Please note
that this number differs depending on the student curriculum. There are no minimum credit
requirements per semester. However, there are minimum requirements when applying for
certain scholarships and various programs. As the number of credits registered may impact
visa status for international students, it is imperative that students register carefully. For more
information, please consult with the Student Office.
● Maximum Number of Credits
Students who, due to a leave of absence or withdrawal from the University, are moved from
the AY 2004/2006 curriculum to the AY 2011 curriculum will receive the same credit registration
limits specified by the AY 2004/2006 curriculum (see p.92).

Registration
■
Course registration occurs each semester. Please use the Undergraduate Academic
Handbook, syllabus (see p.98), course timetable (available on the Academic Office website)
and course registration guidance materials in order to create a study plan, then register for
courses via Campus Terminal during the appropriate course registration period. If you are not
fully prepared when the time to register comes, it can lead to either incomplete or incorrect
registration of classes, costing you valuable time and effort. Please use extra caution when
registering for classes to ensure you are able to progress in your study plan.
Curriculum
Course registration is the process of each student registering for classes they would like to
take, as well as a declaration of intent. Course registration is the most important part of course
planning, and absolutely necessary in order to attend classes, receive credit and graduate.

Academic Misconduct
Examinations at APU are conducted in order to assess students’ level of achievement in their
studies, and as such must be conducted fairly and impartially. Cheating during an examination
amounts to an abandonment of one’s own right to learning and will result in a student’s
disqualification from study at APU. As a university providing scholarships and other forms of
Seminar Subjects
support from both internal and external sources, APU cannot permit activities such as
cheating. From this standpoint, APU strictly enforces the rules for examinations.
● Cheating
The following acts are regarded as cheating and will be strictly punished:
● U
sing a stand-in (another person to take the test for you)

5.1.1 1st Year Seminars
APU offers even first year students the opportunity to study seminar subjects in the form of
First Year Student Workshops. These subjects are designed to prepare students for their study
at APU through a range of lectures and workshops on issues including study skills and cross-

cultural communication. Lecture themes are as follows.
113
Study at APU
First Year Student Workshop I
Learning Objectives
University academics differ greatly compared to the academic style employed in high schools.
Unlike the memorization-focused, passive way of learning in high school, university academics
require an independent, active, self-driven way of learning that will encourage students to
discover problems and solve them on their own. Thus First Year Student Workshop I aims at
Curriculum
developing study skills and positive attitude towards learning.
Instruction Methods
One seminar class is made up of roughly 60 students. All classes are composed of a lecture
by the instructor followed by a small-size workshop. The workshop portion of the class is
facilitated by undergraduate Teaching Assistants (TAs). Instructors routinely visit the workshop
Course Registration
classes and provide support and advice when necessary. The smaller workshop classes are
further divided into two groups where each group will spend the semester researching a
specific topic together. Each person in the group must submit an individual report on the topic
at the end of a semester as well as give a presentation.
Learning Objectives
Doing group work with students from many different cultural backgrounds is a daily occurrence
here at APU and also quite usual in today’s globalized society. This subject aims to foster in
first year students the basic skills and attitudes that are necessary for such intercultural
cooperation.

First Year Student Workshop II
Classes will fundamentally consist of lectures by instructors in conjunction with seminar
classes run by undergraduate Teaching Assistants (TAs). Large classroom lectures will be
divided by language basis (either Japanese or English), whereas the seminar part of the class
will take place in smaller classrooms where students will be divided into groups of both
Japanese-basis and English-basis students. The groups will conduct a group project
throughout the semester. For the group project, each group will plan and implement a project
that will help APU students fulfill their unfulfilled desires at APU. For the final step, each group
will give a presentation on their project at a presentation competition.

Study Abroad Programs)
Study at APU
6.1 Active Learning
APU education stresses the elements of knowledge, experience and exchange. Classroom
lectures are useful for acquiring knowledge; however, it is also necessary to provide students
with off-campus opportunities to gain experience and participate in exchange activities.
Curriculum
Moving away from the standard system of teaching and learning based solely on classroom
lectures, APU designs programs to focus on experience and practical learning. This is called
Active Learning. APU offers a range of programs from domestic and international fieldwork to
internships. The University also makes use of its vast global networks to provide a wide variety
of regional and international cooperative programs. We strongly urge all students to take
advantage of at least one Active Learning Program as part of their four year course of study.

Accelerated Graduation and Tuition
Examinations and Grading
Accelerated graduation students will pay adjusted tuition fees according to the tuition model
below. Because of these changes, once a student has registered for accelerated graduation
they will pay a comparatively higher Tuition Fee B (registered credit based fee) per semester
than regular students. Be sure to confirm tuition fees for each semester. Once a student has
registered for the Accelerated Graduation Program, they will be unable to return to normal
student status unless their registration is revoked during re-evaluation during the 4th semester.
Students graduating in three and a half years will not be billed Tuition Fee B (registered credit
based fee) for the 7th semester.

This program allows APU students to enroll in the Teaching Certificate course at RU on a
non-degree basis, complete the following required courses during their four years at APU, and
ultimately earn an English Teaching Certificate (Junior High School Category 1 / Senior High
School Category 1).
Study at APU
● In the 1st and 2nd years, students take on-demand RU lectures over the Internet and
intensive session courses at APU.
● In the 3rd year, students study at RU in Kyoto to enroll in teaching certificate subjects and
take RU major subjects that are transferable as APU credits required for graduation.
● In the 4th year, students complete a teaching and nursing care practicum, as well as register
for Workshop for Teaching Profession during their 8th semester at APU.
Curriculum
In addition to the required credits for graduation, students must complete approx. 60 credits of
RU Teacher Certificate Program subjects. Registering for this program without being fully
motivated means that, not only will students be unable to obtain their teaching certificates,
they will have difficulty in meeting APU’s graduation requirements. Students should approach
their studies systematically and with a firm sense of purpose.

In addition, they will have to pass a Teacher Employment Examination in order to secure a
teaching position at a public or private school.
