本系採「系本位課程」（school/department-based curriculum）與「能力本位課程」（competency-based course）兩種理念與做法；以「系本位課程」之理念與做法，確保系上為學生所規劃之課程，皆能符合未來就業與升學所需知能，而「能力本位課程」之理念與做法，控管每門課程皆能達到預訂的能力指標，以確保系本位課程能培養學生在就業市場與升學所需具備的能力。

本系進行本位課程的規劃方式，乃先從確認「系教育目標/學生就業與升學方向」開始，之後再訂定「學生所需知能」，最後再進一步規劃相對應課程。

     The philosophy of the Japanese curriculum design was based on two major items of courses: the departmental core and the competency oriented. That is, firstly, the Japanese department students will be equipped with professional Japanese language abilities through rigorous training of various core courses offered by the Department. Secondly, every course is expected to bring up the student’s ability to an expected level of competence so as to meet the challenge and demand of the career market in the near future.

       The department will first review and determine the departmental educational goals and the student’s employment or advanced study opportunities before setting the required level(s) of professional skills or language abilities for the planning of our curriculum design.
