Economics

Asahikawa University's Faculty of Economics is a higher education institution in the field of economics that meets the needs of the times and regions. Rather than simply learning the theory of the economy, we emphasize learning practically by touching the living economy, such as conducting field surveys in the region and inviting people who are active in the front lines of management to talk. I am.

We aim to develop human resources who can play an active role in the community as independent professionals by cultivating a wide range of perspectives and cultures for problem-solving, multifaceted thinking and practical skills, and acquiring basic skills for working adults.

Asahikawa University is a school corporation that originated in Asahikawa Sewing College, which was founded in Asahikawa Village, which had a population of less than 6,000 at that time, in 1898, when the history of Hokkaido development had just begun. Since then, with the founding philosophy of "a school rooted in the community, cultivating the community, and open to the community," we have carved a history of over 100 years in the northern Hokkaido region centered on Asahikawa City.

Based on its founding philosophy, Asahikawa University has set "cultivation of human resources who can become independent" as its basic policy of education and has inherited community-oriented education and research for more than 50 years since its opening.
