  1. Keys to an economy with accelerating transformation: digital skills and English


    Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the world economy and business have changed rapidly. To respond to these changes, we offer a curriculum with two pillars: digital skills and English.

  2. Global perspective and ability to act locally essential for business

  3. Learn from faculty members with rich business experience at the heart of the economy in the Chubu region


    We have many full-time faculty members with rich business experience in banking and other areas. Acquire the ability to solve economic issues by learning the perspectives of economic professionals active on the front lines.

Five specialties of economics to learn from theory, history, and policy perspectives

Economics is a discipline that helps solve issues in contemporary society. To deepen knowledge and understand economic society correctly, we approach economics from three angles: theory, history, and policy. We zero in on the essence of economic events occurring in the Chubu region, Japan, and the world currently to foster members of society who are knowledgeable about economic policy.
