神奈川県茅ヶ崎市 The purpose of this survey was to clarify what the students learned in their 4-year education at the Faculty of the International Studies, Bunkyo University. The survey was conducted for 237 senior students from January to March 1993, and 84 students answered the questionairs. The results were as follows; 1) The 75.7% of "courses from which they learned something good" are among special education courses. 2) The main reasons of taking such courses are about "subjects of the course" and "the personality and experiences of the teacher". 3) The good thing they received are "to get technical knowledge", "to develop a point of veiw about society or human beings", "to encouter teachers" and "to learn how to study in college". 4) In short what they learned in their 4-year education are "to take a international view of things", "to learn how to study" and "to communicate with others". 5) Things of relative importance in college life are on "association with friends" firstly. "Club activities" and "study" follow in that order. 6) The main requests and proposals to the faculty are about "language education", "taking varieties of licenses", "curriculum in general", and "teachers' teaching skills". These results suggest that we could attain the aim of establishing the faculty : to teach students a practical and a interdisciplinary body of knowledge so that they can solve international or global problems
