Nagoya University was selected for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) Future-Leading and Advanced Graduate-schools (FLAGs) program in 2025. Within the “comprehensive” category, Nagoya University proposed a project titled “Nagoya University Vision R16: Cultivating high-level doctoral program graduates who will serve and succeed in society” (provisional translation).
This project aims to enhance the university’s ability to foster graduate students equipped with thorough subject expertise, an international outlook, and advanced practical skills through the “establishment of international hubs (internationalization)” and “rigorous industry-academia collaborative education,” while also supporting the formation of graduate education hubs that seek to increase the number of high-level doctoral degree holders by, for example, reviewing the allocation of resources within the university. Nagoya University strives for the sustainable evolution of graduate education reform and the expansion of its social impact by sharing and developing the educational and administrative principles and achievements to be realized under this project with the university’s stakeholders both internal and external to the institution.
