Regional Collaboration Program

With sociology, economics, and education as core academic fields, we cultivate professionals capable of contributing to regional revitalization and the regeneration and development of areas facing social and economic challenges.

Training of Advanced Regional Collaboration Leaders to Drive Regional Revitalization and Economic Development

　With sociology, economics, and education as our core academic fields, we aim to provide an education that contributes to the advancement of community collaboration leaders by promoting education related to the organization of collaborative learning and the formulation of long-term visions for the region, while also fostering interdisciplinary learning in fields such as agriculture, fine arts, and sports—which are linked to resource development and other aspects of the region’s industry and culture—as outlined at Graduate School.We will train professionals who possess: (1) the ability to organize “collaborative learning” within the community while cultivating the next generation of leaders; (2) the ability to conceive and formulate a long-term vision together with residents, and to persuasively explain and communicate that vision to the broader community; and (3) the ability to develop new resources and open up new markets within the region.
