Teaching Certificate【all】

  • At GIS, middle and high school teacher’s licenses (in English) can be obtained by students who enrolled at Hosei University up until the 2020 academic year. However, the teacher’s license program has been abolished from 2021 entrants. Therefore, the teacher’s license can’t be obtained even if a student takes a GIS course as a special register student (科目等履修生) after graduating. Students who wish to obtain a teacher’s license (limited to students who entered university up to the 2020 academic year) must obtain the necessary credits for teaching before graduation.
    If a student has been studying abroad from their 4th year, they can obtain the teacher’s license when they graduate if all necessary courses have been completed before graduating.
  • GIS では、2020 年度入学者まで中学・高校の教員免許状（英語）が取得できますが、2021 年度入学者 より、教員免許の課程を廃止いたしました。そのため、卒業後に科目等履修生として GIS の科目を履修しても、教員免許は取得できません。教員免許取得を希望する方（2020 年度までの入学者に限る）は、必ず卒業までに、教職で必要な単位を取得してください。 なお、留学等で 4 年以上在籍する場合は、在学中に必要な科目を全て修得すれば、卒業と同時に教員免 許状を取得することができます。

Two Semester Subjects (1 year courses from the spring to the fall semesters) / 通年科目【all】

  • Course registration will be in the spring semester, while the grades will be released at the end of the fall semester, so please be careful about the upper limit of course registrations. Since the grades are not released at the end of the spring semester, at the time that students enrol for the fall semester, the credits for these courses are not counted for advancing to the next academic year.
  • 履修登録は春学期、成績付与は秋学期となるので、履修上限に注意してください。春学期末にはまだ成績がつかないため、秋入学生の場合、次の学年への進級単位としてはカウントされません。
  • Example: Registered course for the spring semester of year 3: Course maximum of 4 credits is counted, which are to be officially confirmed in results at the end of the fall semester for progression into year 4.
  • 例：3年次春学期に履修登録：履修上限に4単位カウント、4年次秋学期末に成績4単位付与
