  • University of Tsukuba at a Glance
    Maps and Data University of Tsukuba At a Glance 2019 Academic Year (Apr. 1 - Mar. 31) 1 HISTORY & CREST & SLOGAN ■ History Since its inception in Tsukuba Science City in 1973, the University of Tsukuba has offered a comprehensive curriculum of education, covering everything from literature and science to fine arts and physical education. Although the university’s roots stretch back much further than 40 years; its origins lie in the Normal School, the first of its kind in Japan, established in 1872 on the former site of Shoheizaka Gakumonjo. The school was renamed several times over the years, eventually becoming Tokyo Higher Normal School before incorporating four institutions—Tokyo Higher Normal School, Tokyo University of Literature and Science, Tokyo College of Physical Education, and Tokyo College of Agricultural Education—in 1949 to become the Tokyo University of Education, the forerunner to today’s University of Tsukuba. ■ Crest The University of Tsukuba’s “five-and-three paulownia” crest derives from the emblem adopted by Tokyo Higher Normal School students in 1903 for their school badge, which was inherited by the Tokyo University of Education in 1949. Later, in 1974, the University Council officially approved the crest as the school insignia of the University of Tsukuba. The “five-and-three paulownia” design is based on a traditional Japanese motif, but brings a unique variation to the classic style: the University of Tsukuba crest is different because only the outline of the leaves is depicted. The color of the crest is CLASSIC PURPLE, the official color of the University of Tsukuba. ■ Slogan (Japanese) 開かれた未来へ。 Since its inception, the University of Tsukuba’s philosophy has been one of openness as we seek to forge a better future through education, research, and all other aspects of academia.

This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the Department of Transportation University Transportation Centers Program, in the interest of information exchange. The U.S. Government assumes no liability for the contents or use thereof. From March 8-10, The University of Toledo faculty (Mark Vonderembse, Paul Hong, Monideepa Tarafdar, Udayan Nandkelyor, Sachin Modi, David Dobrzykowski) and two doctoral students (Ryan Skiver and Vincent Whitelock) have attended the 5th Conference on International Supply Chain Management in Tokyo, Japan. Financial support of UT/UTC grants ($12,000 +) made this conference quite successful in a number of ways. This conference has achieved the following objectives. For more details, please check the 5th International Supply Chain Management Symposium and Workshop . First, initially there was a concern about the safety issues of having this international conference in Tokyo, Japan since serious natural disaster and nuclear reactor accidents in Fukushima took more than several months to resolve. However, with the cooperation of Japanese government and University of Tokyo, the issues were adequately addressed and thus this International conference in Tokyo occurred as planned.

Due to the rapid advancement of computer technologies, it becomes possible in driving simulators to display detailed scenes and provide realistic motion feels of the vehicle driving. Driving simulators are widely utilized in the research and development of vehicles that account for the driver behavior in a virtual traffic environment. However, some drivers feel sick during and after the driving.

Located less than an hour from central Tokyo, at the heart of Tsukuba Science City—Japan’s premier science and technology research hub—the university offers a pleasant, green environment for staff and students to engage in cutting edge academic research and training. In 1973, the university was relocated from Tokyo to Tsukuba, and re- established with the aim of being a global institution open to all—both within and outside Japan. We aim to develop integrative approaches to research and education, which allow our graduates to be active in solving future challenges. Our motto “IMAGINE THE FUTURE” encapsulates our hope for a better future, based on shikon risai (師魂理才) or the concept of human kindness, which helps bring people together, allowing them to solve problems rationally for mutual benefit. In 2009, we were selected as a core university for internationalization as part of the government’s Global 30 program. More recently, in 2014, we were selected for the Top Global University Project, which aims to increase the number of elite Japanese universities ranked in the top 100 globally.
