Engineering Education Research Center
The mission of the Engineering Education Research Center is to establish a solid foundation for the future of engineering education by promoting the innovation of engineering education and by strengthening a globally minded education at Kyoto University Engineering. The end goal is to respond effectively to the diverse circumstances surrounding engineering education.
The Center is responsible for Faculty Development (FD) of junior faculty members and common courses for Kyoto University Engineering. To internationalize education at the university and develop global human resources, the Center uses EdTech (educational technology) to offer an advanced education for international students; promotes study abroad and fixed-term overseas study programs for students and young researchers; and proactively and strategically develops international partnerships through the onsite lab system and the double degree program.
The Center also provides common courses for Kyoto University Engineering to foster entrepreneurship with an eye on building stronger ties with society.
