ProfessorO'NEILL, Ted

Now is the time to be open to the unexpected. Your next few years as a university student in the Faculty of International Social Sciences is a good time to say "Yes" to new opportunities. Now is the time for creative students to become leaders. I hope as a student here you will make new discoveries about the world and find your place in it.

Studies of the linguistic landscape investigate the languages displayed in a given public space or area. This may inform us about the surrounding society or community. Linguistic landscape studies are interdisciplinary; they are where linguistics, sociology, psychology, and geography intersect. In my linguistic landscape CLIL seminars students conduct field studies, collect and analyse data, and present conclusions about communities of their choice in Tokyo, around Japan, or abroad.
