Abstract
In recent years study of "Kankyougaku"has become popular in Japan. However, the research is being continued in the situation where characteristic of "Kankyougaku" has not been clearly in academic aspect. From this reason I have decided to clarify academic nature of "Kankyougaku" by analyzing [Purpose] [Object of Study] [Method of Study] [Others] taking up books and papers dealing with Synthetic and One system Science, Study and Research on environment and environmental problems. As a result, it has become clear that "Kankyougaku" in Japan can be describe as follows;1. Purpose: To present theory to realize better environment.2. Object of Study: Human Beings and Environment (inclusive of interrelation).3. Method of Research: To analyze, connect, unify and evaluate factors of environment and environmental problems.4. Others: Characteristic of others are [Reevaluation of Factor Revivification], [Systematiza tion of Study, Method and Knowledge for environment], [Fusion of human and cultural, social and natural science] and [Open the way for Interdisciplinary study by individual].
