Global Practical Education and
						Maintaining Reciprocity with the Community
					
						Global Practical Education, an initiative to maintain reciprocity between the university on the one hand and the local community, companies, and the international community on the other, is being rolled out throughout the university.
 International and Japanese students form cross-faculty teams in which they learn about the history, culture, and industry at both the local and global scale. They take knowledge gained in the classroom out into the world, working in partnership with the wider community through work experience placements and other programs on issues that directly confront society.
 Students acquire the global practical knowledge required to solve problems from a borderless perspective, while becoming involved in problem-solving within society.
