The Graduate School of Education aims to develop experts in education and childcare who, in addition to outstanding practical skills, possess a solid theoretical grounding in fields connected with the development, education and care of children.

The school has three fields through which students strive to meet these goals: Educational Studies, Childcare/Curriculum Development and Research and Clinical Education Course. By studying a broad range of related fields in addition to in-depth research in their own fields, students can attain a high level of knowledge and skills. Students also benefit from close collaboration with Nakamura Gakuen’s kindergartens/nursery schools and Development Support Center, giving them practical experience of work in educational/daycare, special education and child support facilities.
