The Graduate School of International Cultural Studies has established "mutual understanding of cultural diversity and coexistence and creation of cultures" as an educational philosophy, and has established the purpose of education and research to foster a global sense and respect and create local history and culture. it was done. "International Cultural Studies" is an interdisciplinary study of human "culture" from various aspects. Therefore, the staff of this graduate school are faculty members with various specialized fields such as philosophy, history, political science, literature, language, anthropology, sociology, economics, pedagogy, regional studies, design studies, and tourism town planning. I have it. We look forward to working with you to explore the international challenges of culture and the discovery and creation of local culture in the new era, with a global perspective and local awareness of issues.

Yamaguchi Prefectural University, as the only "prefectural university" in Yamaguchi Prefecture, has four features: "respect for humanity," "emphasis on consumers' perspectives," "coexistence with local communities," and "response to internationalization." As an educational philosophy, as a "community-contribution-type university" that can meet the needs of the region, we conduct specialized education and research in the fields of health and culture of the citizens of the prefecture, return excellent human resources and research results, and are highly evaluated. I am aiming to get it.

In order to realize these and make Yamaguchi Prefectural University a "university with a strong presence" that is trusted by students and citizens of the prefecture, each faculty member will change their consciousness from dependence to independence, and the university will be integrated into the university management and will be solid. And we are actively working on it.
