Society is graying with the decrease in the birthrate. Humankind faces challenges in relation to the environment, resources, and energy.

The predecessors to these normal schools were the Tokyo School of Training Elementary School Teachers, established in 1873, the Tokyo Women’s Normal School, established in 1900, and others. Since its founding, TGU has sent many graduates out into the field of education nationwide, and has a long history of achievement in training educators.

  • Administrative Efficiency of National University Corporations in Japan
    Consulting Project PM11E004 Vargha Marton Gabor Administrative efficiency of National University Corporations in Japan A DEA and SFA analysis 1 Introduction In 2004 the Japanese higher education system experienced the biggest transformation since the Second World War. The government decided to relinquish direct control over national universities by incorporating them, resulting in significant administrative independence and increased flexibility. This was marketed as a significant step towards institution independence but expert opinion was mixed to say the least (see for example (Chan-Tiberghien 2006) or (Yamamoto 2004)). The main goal of this paper is to see whether administrative efficiency improved after the reform. The initial expectation is increased efficiency since one of the tools of the reform had been an increased autonomy in matters relating to personnel. Based on data published by the universities from 2004 to 2009, I use DEA, stochastic frontier (SFA) estimation and a method that is a mix of the two to examine the public higher education sector as a whole (86 institutions). These performance estimations can be used for three purposes: to provide an estimation of the relative inefficiency of the institutions, to observe the changes in average efficiency year by year and to provide ranking between the universities. Accordingly, performance estimations are used to estimate general relative yearly efficiency and with the help of OLS estimation the efficiency scores are regressed for environmental factors. Second, a ranking is made based on each estimation method and the 10 best and the 10 worst performing institutions are selected and examined with the help of a number of indicators.

  • International Perspectives in Geography AJG Library 3
    International Perspectives in Geography AJG Library 3 Editor in Chief: Noritaka Yagasaki, Japan More information about this series at http://www.springer.com/series/10223 Aims and Scope: The AJG Library is published by Springer under the auspices of the Association of Japanese Geographers. This is a scholarly series of international standing. Given the multidisciplinary nature of geography, the objective of the series is to provide an invaluable source of information not only for geographers, but also for students, researchers, teachers, administrators, and professionals outside the discipline. Strong emphasis is placed on the theoretical and empirical understanding of the changing relationships between nature and human activities. The overall aim of the series is to provide readers throughout the world with stimulating and up-to-date scientifi c outcomes mainly by Japanese and other Asian geographers. Thus, an “Asian” fl avor different from the Western way of thinking may be refl ected in this series. The AJG Library will be available both in print and online via SpringerLink. About the AJG The Association of Japanese Geographers (AJG), founded in 1925, is one of the largest and leading organizations on geographical research in Asia and the Pacifi c Rim today, with around 3000 members. AJG is devoted to promoting research on various aspects of human and physical geography and contributing to academic development through exchanges of information and knowledge with relevant internal and external academic communities. Members are tackling contemporary issues such as global warming, air/water pollution, natural disasters, rapid urbanization, irregular land-use changes, and regional disparities through comprehensive investigation into the earth and its people.
