Overseas development

Support for spreading education of science and technology in overseas base schools

To collaborate with universities in strategic areas throughout the world and to spread education based on science and technology, we aim to support program inception and instruction of training methods. We also aim to establish extension campuses overseas in the future.

  • To establish a credit transfer system, we support improvement of the same programs as our university and training methods.
  • We support the establishment of KOSEN (College of Technology) at overseas base schools.
  • We support teachers at overseas base schools for diploma study.

In anticipation of rapid development, they will be developed at strategic areas throughout the world, to which Japanese-associated companies are progressing.

Providing a borderless educational environment with quality assurance in a hub school that shares the DNA of technical studies.
