Бакалавр по Сохранению и Реставрации Культурных Ценностей

In Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Assets, students will study images, objects, and preservation science, gaining specialized knowledge and skills. The goal is to train people who will be able to preserve objects of historical importance. Through our seminars, students can also see the restorations of an array of cultural properties and works of art sent to us from around the country. The specialized knowledge gained here can be used by museum curators and technicians that preserve and restore artifacts but is also applicable in a range of other fields and businesses.

Established in April 1992 by Yamagata Prefecture and Yamagata City, the Tohoku University of Art and Design is the first venture of its kind in Japan where a university built with funds by the government has been turned over to be operated as an entirely private university.

Tohoku University of Art and Design holds the following principles: to confer knowledge far and wide as a center for academic culture; to fully educate and conduct research in the area of art and design; to nurture human beings who, while developing their intellectual, ethical and applied potential, find joy in the process of creation, as realized through the unification of art and learning; and to contribute to the improvement of academic culture and the vitalization of industry.

The University is located in Yamagata, in the central part of the Tohoku Region. This area has a rich history starting with the roots of the original Japanese culture of the ancient Jomon Era over ten thousand years ago. This environment helps accomplish our goal of establishing a new vision of the world utilizing science and technology in concert with artistic creation and conscientious effort.
