The University of Aizu

To put its principle into practice, the University of Aizu recruited faculty from throughout the world.The situation in Japan today is such that both the Quality and Quantity of computer researchers and engineers are insufficient, and there are only a limited number of people capable of supervising them. Accordingly, the University recruited outstanding individuals from Japan and overseas. The University sought outstanding faculty by reviewing their achevements in their respective fields through detailed examinations, and this resulted in approximately half of the faculty being non-Japanese. This level of internationality has became one of the University's most distinctive features. Not only does this prove that computer researchers and engineers in Japan. Of couese our outstanding faculty also includes Japanese educators and reserchers, and both Japanese and non-Japanese researchers on campus collaborate on joint projects to make global research practically viable.
