This course examines decadence as a textual, historical, sexual and cultural formation across a range of literary texts of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Students are introduced to European and British varieties of literary decadence and aestheticism; art for art's sake theories of aesthetic production; relations between lifestyle, aestheticism and commodity culture; and emergent discourses of degeneration and sexology. The course asks students to consider how decadent aestheticism was shaped by regulatory categories of taste and vulgarity, and by cultural practices of tastemaking, lifestyling and the aestheticisation of sexuality. Students also consider the relationship between sexual dissidence and social and cultural distinction as produced in the representative examples of decadent literature studied.

This course introduces students to essential notions in topology, such as topological spaces, continuous functions, and compactness.

Through the study of systematic anatomy, students can master the basic theory, basic knowledge and basic skills of systematic anatomy, correctly use the academic language of anatomy, and cultivate students' self-study ability, observation ability, comprehensive ability and ability to analyze problems, induct problems and solve problems. Learning system anatomy well will lay a solid foundation for becoming a qualified doctor.

Each module consists of a theoretical and experimental section. The ratio of theory to experiment depends on the content. For example, the ratio of motion system theory to practice is 1:3, the ratio of theory to practice of circulatory system is 1.5:2.5, and the ratio of nervous system theory to practice is 2:2. This course is an online and offline blending. After teaching each system offline (generally six times: motor system; splanchnology parts; circulatory system; sensory organs; nervous system and endocrine system), students are required to complete their homework online in their spare time, watching teaching and clinically relevant videos as well. In experimental teaching, students are provided a large number of qualified specimens and a small number of models. First of all, students are required to take the initiative to observe specimens and models. Second, for those structures are difficult to be identified, teachers can demonstrate for students. At the end of each module, teachers should give a summarize and tell students the next learning content, so that students do a good job of preview. At the end of the course, the students visit the Human Museum of Fudan University School of Medicine.

This course is divided into two parts. The first half of the course offers a comparative modern history of East Asian countries, with a special focus on Hokkaido, Ryukyu-Okinawa, Taiwan, Korea and China, in the framework of Japanese “Nation-Empire” building. The course also explores categories of people, including trafficked children, peddlers, “abducted” women, the Ainu, Taiwan's indigenous people, Micronesians, and Okinawans. The second half of the course focuses on cultural studies (pop culture, movies, music manga, etc.), political economy (regional integration, ASEAN+3, TPP, RCEP, One Belt One Load), comparative politics (political regime, identity, nationalism, democracy), regional security (U.S.-Japan Alliance, U.S. military presence, military cooperation, South China and East China sea, bandwagoning or hedge). The course uses active learning in groups, making maximum use of the mixture of students from different regions and countries, and bringing out different perspectives, points of view, and opinions on various issues and topics.

This course provides research training for students through placement in a laboratory at Carlos III University of Madrid. Students carry out an original research project under the supervision and guidance of assigned faculty members. The specific topic studied depends on the faculty in charge of the laboratory in which each student is assigned. At the conclusion of the program, students submit their final work (paper, presentation, report, etc.) as instructed by their lab supervisors
