Developing highly-skilled professionals for local communities

As a higher education institution, we are expected by the local community to educate and nurture the development of highly-skilled professionals who will serve as invaluable human resources for the community. In addition, the greater emphasis placed on education and research in our doctoral program ensures that we raise highly-trained researchers that can be employed in more advanced and specialized professions.

Our collaborations with public experimental and research agencies, which reinforce local industrial technology expertise and competitiveness, enable us to provide our students with a broader and deeper level of education and research experience.

With the increasing numbers of undergraduates and members of society throughout the country seeking admission into postgraduate education programs, we are actively responding to the requirements of Akita Prefecture, which is faced with the need to develop its science and technology base through collaborations between industry, academia and government.

The various departments and institutes of our university play a central role in the formation of networks between public experimental and research agencies and private corporations in Akita Prefecture.
