Master of Knowing About Ninja Degree

From the Japan Times:

Yuji Yamada, a professor of Japanese history at the university in charge of the ninja center, was surprised at Mitsuhashi’s devotion to the task.

“We provide historical classes and courses on ninja skills. But I didn’t expect him to engage to this extent” like a real living ninja, Yamada said.

To enroll, students have to take an exam on Japanese history and a reading test on historical ninja documents.

“About three students enroll every year. I think there’s demand,” the professor said.

“We get many inquiries from overseas but I have to say one thing: This is a course to learn about the ninja, not to become one.”
