Introduction	Hachinohe University is comprised of the Business Faculty and the Human Health Faculty. The faculties provides an optimum environment for realizing your dreams by fully supporting your endeavors. The strong point of the Business Faculty is its serious approach to business administration within the community. In order to properly raise leaders who will be at the core of the business world, we have two courses and five programs to choose from. The “Management Course” allows students on campus to put into practice the skills they will need in society. We continue to improve the design and details of the course, and for that reason, we have added the “IT in Society Program” as well as the new “Agriculture Business Program”, started in April of 2011. Furthermore, within the “Community Course” is the “Community Business Program”, which trains students in economics as well as information systems with a diverse range of specialty classes to meet the need for careers as public servants as well as jobs in various NPOs. Finally, the “Education Program” trains students as specialty teachers in business and information technology. The Faculty of Human Health pursues the questions of Mind, Body, and Social Welfare. With two courses and five programs, both general and specialized information on health can be studied. In the “Sports Science Course”, two programs are available. One is the “Education Program”, which trains students to become teachers of health and physical education. The other is the “Professional Trainer Program”, which trains students in health and physical training methods for careers as sports trainers. The “Health Science Course” further trains students in this specialty so that they can obtain the Japan Psychologist Certificate upon graduation. Also, the s “Specialty in Social Welfare Program” is available for those students who want to pursue the National Examination in that area.

Introduction	The Junior College is comprised of three departments; the Early Childhood Education Department, the Life Design Department, and the Nursing Department. To help students realize their dreams for the future, we provide an optimal learning environment with maximum support. The Department of Early Childhood Education trains students to be childcare professionals, our motto being, “People raising people” From the first year, our students participate in various practical sessions for learning on location at education facilities. Focus on voice, drawing, and the body gives the program its unique ability to strengthen our students’ skills. In two years, students will gain a wide view of how to teach another person as well as looking within and learning from themselves and others. The Life Design Department was initiated with the practical intention of preparing students for various licenses and certificates in three courses composed of six programs: “Social Welfare and Health”, “Food and Tourism”, “Business Skills” to help students succeed after graduation. Students will learn the manners and culture necessary to help them in their total lives. Supporting each student’s desire to be a leader in their respective fields, assistance with professional licenses, extra-curricular experiential training, and career guidance are all top priorities. The Nursing Department is the first in southern Aomori Prefecture to provide advanced training in cooperation with medical and related organizations, following a systematized educational curriculum corresponding to high level therapies and the contemporary need for nurses with high career aspirations. With the completion of the beautiful Practicum Building completed in the spring of 2008, laboratories as well as classrooms are well equipped with specialized tools and instruments, allowing for practical education on campus. Off campus, our liaisons with hospitals and other facilities in the local area provide for further educational opportunities.

Introduction	In partnership with the local community, the Research Center helps “to create a new Hachinohe”. Since October of 2007, together with neighborhood planning committees, businesses, and the local government, the research center “think-tank” has become the focus for growth and vision in the area. Individual faculty have used the center as a building block for their neighborhood planning projects, and the center itself has sponsored many of its own classes, open classes taught by visiting lecturers, as well as programs for the community. The Center Director, Mr. Otani, has committed the center to a plan of 100 courses in 10 years. Furthermore, the center sets goals for the creation of a network for the prefecture’s and city’s high school education departments, local governments, and local community network in order to strengthen communication in those areas as well.

Introduction	To build upon the strong foundation of a high school education, the Technical School provides specialty education in “Automotive Maintenance” and “Nursing Care” for a high school diploma. We help to instill and develop in our students a sense of social responsibility as well as strength of spirit. Successful completion of the “Automotive Maintenance” course will allow students to be exempt from the practical part of the “National 2nd grade Automotive Exam”. Of course, upon graduation, because students have more than enough knowledge, they receive the highest accolades every year. This is due to our curriculum philosophy, in which practical, personalized education encourages and strengthens the students’ individual skills. The “Nursing Care” course helps students prepare for the examination of the “National Certification of Nursing Care” which is administered at the same time as graduation. Along with “Elderly and Handicap Care”, social welfare on a broad scale is also fully studied and practiced. Students study in order to pass the national exam upon graduation. Furthermore, helping a needy population takes great warmth and a giving spirit, as well as specialized knowledge of not only books, but also of real people in their daily lives, and this is what we strive to help our students achieve.

Introduction	In this kindergarten, we specialize in helping our students overcome the Japanese cultural weakness of self-expression and self-assertion. To this end, inside the center our educational planning, content, activities, and decorations can’t be out-done. Outside, children enjoy the spacious play area, the garden, the trees, and learning about the flowers and insects. As the children enjoy themselves, their hearts are refined and they are able to express themselves in their daily lives.This is why the children always tell us, “I’m glad I joined!” and “I’m glad I could join!”
