We aim to uncover and activate the latent skills of each student, and through design, we cultivate the ability to take on various social issues, link people and society and create social value. Determined to realize that goal, we place immense value on being a creative environment where challenges are constantly embraced.

Responding to the demands of society and the times, we nurture professionals who acquire the fundamentals of specialized science and practical application skills, while cultivating broad perspectives and a rich sense of humanity, and who have a pioneering spirit to create new intellectual and technological creations.

It is the largest art university in Japan, with over 21,000 students ranging in age from 18 to 90, aiming to become a nation built on the arts and producing talented individuals who will transform society through the power of art.

The design department has inherited and evolved the educational system of the Bauhaus, a German school of design that championed the integration of art and technology. Design is about clarifying complexity, making the difficult to use easy, bringing order to chaos, and enriching our lives and social environment to be comfortable and spiritually fulfilling. It also plays a critical role in protecting the natural environment of the Earth and maintaining a sustainable world, through the assembly of wisdom and thought across various technologies and industries. The design department is established with the purpose of cultivating and researching talent aimed at creating high-quality culture that benefits humanity and society through design. Its goal is to nurture designers who possess a rich sensibility and keen insight, offering solutions to many problems with design thinking and technical skills, and who have a comprehensive perspective and creative ability. Transcending the realms of art and science, perceiving the essence of things, and honing the thinking and sense that fuse different elements at a higher dimension is the spirit inherited by NICHIGEI DESIGN.

In the Department of Human Environmental Department of Human Environment Design, students learn the concepts and skills of manufacturing and design, such as architectural design of houses and other buildings, product development and design, and acquire the ability to lead society through new innovations by design. In particular, students will develop the ability to propose unique and high quality designs from the perspective of "universal design," which considers the ease of living for all people. Through the study of various design-related fields, students will consider "design for the human environment" from a wide range of perspectives.

We earnestly explore the role engineering should play in supporting the society of the 21st century, with the foundational principle of our engineering faculty being the creation of interdisciplinary engineering through the fusion of arts and sciences. We cultivate individuals with a truly regional focus, flexible conceptual thinking, independent thought, and international adaptability rooted in the local community for international expansion.

Kuwasawa Design School (KDS) was Japan’s first leading-edge design school providing education based on a mix of different approaches and perspectives. Yoko Kuwasawa, a designer and journalist, founded KDS in 1954 as an institution to teach the basics in a comprehensive fashion as well as specialized topics. Originally modeled after the German Bauhaus school, KDS curriculums have always reflected and explored the trends and changes of the contemporary era. In order to instill in each graduate the core, driving force that underlies design ̶ a force that fosters originality and the ability to find practical applications ̶ rather than merely teaching design tips and tricks, KDS has students first engage in general studies based on design fundamentals, after which they delve further into the subject by learning specialized techniques and putting their knowledge to practical use.

From ideas aimed at extending possibilities to their utmost limit, we create essential value in various directions and generate synergies from every point of view. We are a creative company that gives shape to an abundance of concepts and objects through that power of imagination and creativity.

We are serious about protecting the bounty of nature we take for granted and building a sustainable future. Our mission is to build a recycling-oriented society through the reuse and recycling of resources, with the aim of creating a society that produces no waste. Each and every one of our employees is aware of their responsibility in the use of resources and deeply understands the importance of reviewing their daily actions. For example, we actively promote the use of recyclable materials, such as reusing paint residue from the painting process as material for cement bowls. In addition, by using recycled resources from other companies' products, we are working toward the realization of a recycling-oriented society.

We develop and sell interior building materials that are friendly to both people and the environment by upcycling eggshells and other items with little use value that would normally be discarded as raw materials.

The School of Design Engineering awards degrees to students who have acquired the design science and technology to create the "ideal state (to be)" demanded by society, and who, based on engineering knowledge and technology, have the design ability of 1) recognition, 2) conceptualization, 3) planning, 4) design and design skills to express the entire manufacturing process, in harmony and fusion with human sensibilities and society.

"Wasabi" (patent and trademark pending) is a sustainable textile born out of a company that designs and produces fabrics and interior goods that originate from kimono in Kyoto, Japan. The new material, made from discarded threads and fabrics, allows for unprecedented combinations of materials and functionality, and its beauty and uniqueness of design are ahead of upcycled materials, giving it value beyond that of virgin materials.
