Master en Ingénierie

The technology in the industrial world has achieved remarkable progress recently, but in parallel, becoming multidisciplinary. Research and development companies have increased, which consequently leads to strong social demands for new technological developments as well as highly-specialized engineers who are capable of coping with those challenges. In response to this, we provide advanced education and research opportunities for trying to enrich the Masters's course of engineering research.

In this major, by the spirit of our foundation, we promote personal research and development to training richly creative high-level engineers who can deal with fast-evolving technological renovation. We also re-educate society members who are engaged in research development.

The origin of founding NIIT was based on the strong will of Niigata-based companies for establishing an educational institution by themselves where they could foster talented engineers in Niigata through on-the-job training. Their determination eventually formed an alliance of the institute foundation, and the fund was raised widely from public to private, including Kashiwazaki and most other cities, towns, and villages in Niigata prefecture.

The number of supporting companies reached more than 500. Thus NIIT was founded by the great enthusiasm of the alliance companies, local government, and many citizens of Niigata.
