Media Design

The challenge in this field is the construction of new relationships between artificial media and humans, and the issues involved in making man-made designs that fit human behavior. By connecting a wide range of disparate fields of study, such as research on technology for human-computer conversation, students can develop a broad understanding of the expressive potential of all kinds of media.

Future University Hakodate is located on a hill overlooking the city of Hakodate with a spectacular view of Mt. Hakodate and the Tsugaru straight. Hakodate has a long history dating back to the Jomon Period 5,000 years ago. Its experience of the trade, war, and the opening of an international port in Edo to Meiji Period transition, and its subsequent role as the gateway to the development of Hokkaido have formed its unique history and culture. Future University Hakodate, which is located in this beautiful and fertile land, wishes to inherit the pioneer spirit to explore unknown fields. As a “Regional Center for Knowledge Creation” of Hakodate and South Hokkaido areas, Future University Hakodate aims to create a sustainable society for people to lead better lives.

Future University Hakodate, as a public university, pledges to offer pride, trust, and love to the community, through student education, regional problem solving, and promotion of industrial and cultural activities. Information Science is now relevant to every aspect of human life. Future University Hakodate pursues our original education and research-based upon the foundation of Information Science and the philosophy of “Designing Society.”
