Fostering the next generation of leaders for value-creating industries
The demands on business management in the future will include development of new businesses based on cutting-edge technologies, as well as rapid adaptation of existing businesses to meet the challenges of an evolving business environment. The objective of the Business Design and Management Department is to foster the growth of people who are capable of serving as business management leaders for value-creation industries that are based on the tradition of manufacturing which has served as the wellspring of Japan’s competitiveness by developing the imagination and constructivity that are needed to achieve this.
An education program for acquiring practical business management capabilities
In order to achieve the above objectives, the Business Management and Design Department offers education programs with the following characteristics.
・ | A curriculum that focuses on value creation processes, such as development of products and services, and construction and management of supply chains. |
・ | Through simulated business experience, engage in exercises and case studies aimed at improving problem solving and issue resolution capability. |
・ | Education against an academic background and teachers with abundant experience in industry form the twin pillars of a research guidance system that enables an interchange between theory and experience. |
Two types of masters degree programs
The Department of Business Design and Management provides a 2-year general course program primarily for students advancing from the undergraduate division and a 1.5-year special degree program for members of society. In these programs, the ordinary students and the special students from general society work together, offsetting each other’s shortcomings through their respective strengths in a course of self-development-type education. Degrees awarded for majors in management design are “Master of Management Engineering” and “Doctor of Management Engineering.” This department is the first in Japan to award degrees in Management Engineering.
