FY2016 Results of Accreditation
Results of Accreditations Performed by the Japan University Accreditation Association July 31, 2017 Introduction In 2002, the Certified Evaluation and Accreditation System was introduced in Japan (enforced in 2004), obligating all higher education institutions (universities, junior colleges and technical colleges) to undergo an evaluation once every 7 years, and all professional graduate schools to undergo an evaluation once every 5 years as well. In each case, the evaluating agency certified by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) conducts the evaluation process, comprehensively assessing the level of education, and other areas. Since its establishment in 1947, the Japan University Accreditation Association (JUAA) has played a significant role in assuring the quality of higher education. On August 31, 2004, the JUAA was authorized by the Minister of MEXT as the first Certified Evaluation and Accreditation Agency for universities. Authorization for its Certified Evaluation and Accreditation later expanded to several other fields. The JUAA currently performs Certified Evaluation and Accreditation in 8 fields (university, junior college, law school, professional graduate business school, professional graduate public policy school, professional graduate school of public health, professional graduate school of intellectual property studies, and professional graduate school of global communications) and the accreditation for school of veterinary medicine. JUAA has just finalized the results of accreditations for FY 2016 as follows. FY 2016 University Accreditation (Certified Evaluation and Accreditation for University) Results On accepting applications for University Accreditation from 56 universities, the JUAA has undertaken the evaluative process. The evaluation including document-analysis and site-visit has been conducted by the University Accreditation Committee with subcommittees.

Introduction of Undergraduate Study Abroad Program in Australia from Tokyo City University
Proceedings of 2017 JSEE Annual Conference – Tokyo, August 30, 2017 W−08 Introduction of Undergraduate Study Abroad Program in Australia from Tokyo City University Koji Homma1 1. Professor, Dr. of Engineering, International Centre, Tokyo City University, 1-28-1 Tamazutsumi, Setagaya, Tokyo JAPAN 158-8557, [email protected] Abstract Tokyo City University Australia Program (TAP) is a part of the Globalization Program and is a collaborative education program developed by Tokyo City University and Edith Cowan University in Perth, Australia. Tokyo City University Australia Program aims to produce global leaders with practical, specialist skills, building on TCU’s long history of hands-on technical education. The achievement of the program for students will be that they may learn, think and talk in English. TAP is composed of preparatory education in Japan during the student’s first year (TAP in Japan) and the five months study abroad program during their second year (TAP in Australia). TAP students take English lessons and global citizen coaching during the preparatory education period and four Liberal Arts subjects in addition to improving English subjects during study abroad period. There are various sub programs to accelerate interaction with native Australian students and international students from many countries. The program educates global citizens with the flexibility, vision and communication skills to deal with changing needs. Keywords: Study abroad, Australia, Globalization 1. Tokyo City University Australia Program (TAP) In 2015, Tokyo City University (TCU) began a new partnership, the Tokyo City University Australia Program (TAP), with Edith Cowan University (Perth, Western Australia). Under the program, 200 students from TCU have studied for five months at Edith Cowan University (ECU) using a jointly developed curriculum.

The Tokyo City University Australia Program（TAP） Yuichi Inouye, Ph.D
The Tokyo City University Australia Program（TAP） Yuichi Inouye, Ph.D. Advisor for International Affairs at Tokyo City University 1. TAP: TCU Australia Program Tokyo City University, or TCU, was founded in 1929 in Tokyo and has a history as one of the most prestigious private colleges of engineering in Japan. TCU expanded to become a comprehensive university since 2009, with 2 graduate schools and 6 faculties across 3 campuses in Tokyo and Yokohama areas. TCU employs 460 academic staff and has 7000 undergraduate students and 600 students in the graduate school. 2. Globalization One of the most serious issues facing contemporary Japan is the declining birth rate and resulting demographic problems. We have fewer young people, and even fewer young people in Japan are heading overseas. The government has to encourage young people, such as university students, in order to deal with various problems in the future as global citizens. Japanese universities must improve the quality of education in order for their students to be global citizens. “Globalization” or “internationalization” is the key word among the universities in Japan today. Not only TCU but all universities in Japan are establishing programs to give students the ability to work in the international arena in the future. Many universities in Japan have developed their own international programs and have concluded many exchange agreements with universities overseas. Most universities have many partner universities abroad, to which they send several students every year, and the more partners they have the more students they can send. TCU is also eager for more of its students to have international experiences.
