Our Mission and Vision

"Pioneer Spirit" and "Innovative Vision" in Educational Development

The specialized knowledge what business sector seeks in their human resources does not necessarily match with what universities teach their students. Although seamlessness across various academic fields has been attempted, there are still thick barriers among each department and school of universities in Japan.

The enormous concept of "information" exists in all fields, whether in science and social science. The field of IT lies across assimilated domains of traditional academic fields and its borders. Keeping narrow specialized and subdivided departments and programs, universities would not be able to respond to the new social needs, and survive in this information era, because the most crucial professionals for current business sector are business engineers and project managers who are required to have comprehensive knowledge of more than two specialized fields. The business sector is eager to find business engineers and project managers for their economic recovery through IT. Thus, the enterprise-oriented curriculum is urgent. The KCGI has originally developed our own enterprise-oriented curriculum by reconstituting several specialized fields into one framework under the concept of "information," and also by developing a new professional program for those assimilated and related domains.

This era of innovative competition demand professionals to equip themselves with abilities to analyze social needs quickly and then generate new concepts, which is a minimum requirement to become leaders in the competitive market. On the other hand, educational institutions need to quickly and flexibly develop and realize new educational domains more suitable to social needs regardless of traditional academic disciplines. Specialized in the rapidly advancing field of IT, the KCGI will always maintain the "pioneer spirit" and "innovative vision" as our core concept of educational development.
