Message from the President As the President of Kobe University, One of the Oldest and Leading Universities in Japan, Let Me Extend to You a Warm Welcome Message from the President As the president of Kobe University, one of the oldest and leading universities in Japan, let me extend to you a warm welcome. Kobe University was founded in the international city of Kobe in 1902. Since the inception 110 years ago, Kobe University has been vigorously pursuing academic endeavor in the exploration and practice of novel theories under the spirit of integrity, freedom, and cooperation. We have always been committed to the creation of knowledge, scientific research and technology in a broad range of fields from humanities and human sciences, social sciences, natural sciences to bio-medical sciences. Fostering future leaders who possess rich understanding and communication skills has also been one of our goals. In the course of our quest for academic excellence, many of our research areas have gained considerable recognition worldwide as the “core research FUKUDA Hideki areas” of Kobe University, and the number is increasing on an ongoing basis. President, Kobe University Most of them are also on the path of becoming a “center of excellence”. In April 2011, we established an Integrated Research Center on Port Island next to the K computer, the high performance computer with exceptional computational ability. The Center, currently housing 10 projects, is expected to develop innovative flagship research and the fostering of human resources with entrepreneurial minds through industry-university-government collaboration. With an increasing number of researchers gathering here from around the world, Kobe University is placing a focus on ways to strengthen ties with international partners for a common value. The two overseas offices, located in the heart of China (Beijing) and the EU (Brussels), play a major role in facilitating such global partnerships. In regards to education, students are given ample opportunities to obtain advanced expertise and a wealth of knowledge through the ever progressing distinctive education programs. Among the 16,558 students pursuing their studies here, there are 1,132 international students from 77 countries and regions. Many of the alumni, both Japanese and International, are active in a vast array of fields within and outside of Japan. I extend an invitation to all students, researchers, public and private sectors, as well as to all persons and organizations interested in studying at or collaborating with Kobe University.
