Japanese majors can be roughly grouped into ぶんけい (Humanities) and りけい (Sciences). The traditional ぶんけい includes ぶんがく, しゃかいがく, けいざいがく, じんるいがく, しんりがく, etc. The traditional りけい includes すうがく, かがく, ぶつりがく, etc. and other engineering majors. Some newer majors like デジタルメディア ("Digital Media") may fall between (or outside of) these categories. If your major is not listed above, ask your instructor.
FYI:
学
is a suffix meaning "study." |
