About
Aichi University was established in 1946. Its prospectus sets forth that the mission of the university is to be instrumental in “the rise of a Japanese civilization that can contribute to world peace as well as the development of talented individuals,” and that the university has its special missions, which include 1) to contribute to the development of regional academic, cultural and economic development and 2) to train individuals with global knowledge and perspectives. It can be said that this founding philosophy assumes even greater significance in this present age, which calls for the development and revitalization of local communities, amid the increasing globalization of the international community.
