It aims at raising the level of research in our country’s universities and fostering creative academic minds, expected to become leaders of the world. Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS) submitted applications for research projects in two of the selected programs—the Humanities and Interdisciplinary/Compound/New Sphere fields. We have obtained wonderful results; both projects were selected. We are extremely pleased and encouraged by this high evaluation of the unique research projects and educational potential of our Graduate School of Area and Culture Studies. To run the program, TUFS has outstanding experts who collaborate on education and research in a wide range of academic fields including linguistics, literature, history, philosophy, cultural anthropology, sociology, political science, and economics. Thus, we have attained an extremely consistent interdisciplinary and comprehensive approach for a single-faculty university. In an age that emphasizes the global community, it is certainly desirable for us to maximize and further develop this unique strength in both education and research. A strong foundation in foreign languages is vital to area and culture studies. TUFS engages in education and research in over 50 languages, cultures and societies in every part of the world, which contributes to cross-cultural understanding and the development of people capable of contributing to the actualization of a harmonious global community. In addition, a double-major system that requires students to specialize in both a language and a discipline-related course of study enables TUFS to produce graduates equipped with a high degree of language competence and a deep knowledge of world cultures and societies. Our new campus in Fuchu is proudly equipped with the state-of-the-art computing network. The most outstanding feature is the information literacy and the number of computers on campus, which ranks at the top level among liberal arts universities in our country. With such priviledged information 2 Setsuho IKEHATA infrastructure, TUFS endeavors to make the best use of multimedia, the internet and other devices, in order to develop the most advanced language education. The University’s Usage-Based Linguistic Informatics project, selected by the 21st Century COE Program, is the concrete manifestation of our plans for the future, which I have just mentioned. The implementation team members are committed to this future vision and vigorously engaged in the project. It is my fervent desire that they will produce rewarding results. It is the intention of everyone at TUFS to combine our wisdom in a concerted effort to do our utmost to make a success of the 21st Century COE Program. With a view to providing full support to the program, TUFS has established the “21st Century COE Program Administration Office” which is directly responsible to myself, the President. This Office is an inter-sectional organization consisted of the President, the Vice-President, the deans of each division, the Program Leader, as well as the managers of the secretariat. Its important role is to enhance the cooperation between the various sections within TUFS and to administrate the use of the space and the budget allocated for research. Tokyo, September 13, 2004 Usage-Based Linguistic Informatics 3 Center of Usage-Based Linguistic Informatics (UBLI) Yuji KAWAGUCHI (COE Program Leader) 1. Linguistic Informatics It is widely believed that linguistic theories and computer sciences have much influenced foreign language education, while the collaboration of these three domains has not brought about new scientific results. The present program will meet such a scientific need. An overall integration of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics will be realized on the basis of Computer Sciences. We have named this new synthetic field Linguistic Informatics. When we hear this name for the first time, we may take it for a branch of natural sciences. However, since our language represents a system of information, Linguistics itself constitutes, in a broad sense, a part of Informatics. In the following lines, the limitation of space will oblige me to explain only the essence of this 21st Century COE (Center of Excellence) Program.

Organization and Research Projects The present COE program is directed by the following supervisers: Susumu ZAIMA, Toshihiro TAKAGAKI, Yoichiro TSURUGA, Kohji SHIBANO, Makoto MINEGISHI, Mayumi USAMI and Yuji KAWAGUCHI. In the academic year 2004, the following research projects are undertaken respectively in three scientific fields.
