    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.

  • 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.
