Abstract

We interviewed six former Japanese government scholarship recipients who obtained jobs in Japan upon graduation to seek the relationship between Academic Japanese (hereinafter "AJ") acquired through tertiary education and Japanese used for their workplace activities. The findings established that AJ was useful in business environment, while highlighting some differences including business-specific skills. Logical thinking capability to identify/solve problems was deemed most relevant; academic training including thesis writing and specialized field studies were useful to develop said capability. Presentation skills for effective/pertinent communication were required for both educational/workplace activities.
