Human Resource Development

Focusing on three pillars, Waseda University will foster human resources who will pave the way to a new era and achieve carbon neutrality.

Waseda University’s strength, since its founding, has been its ability to continuously produce graduates who demonstrate leadership and independently work on any and all problems, doing so around the world and all over Japan.
Beyond situation, place, and role, we cultivate students who will involve the people around them as they work towards their targets and lead them towards the solutions to problems, and we produce human resources who, in 10 or 20 years, can play a central role in the realization of carbon neutrality at all levels, including organizational, regional, and national.

Waseda University established a new minor for the systematic study of carbon neutrality from AY 2022 and make it open to all undergraduate students, regardless of whether they are in the humanities and social sciences or sciences and engineering. This minor systematically combines the carbon neutrality-related subjects that have been established in each academic faculty. For the core subjects of this minor, we plan to launch new, omnibus-style subjects taught by first-class researchers.

Waseda University has developed a human resources training program for doctoral courses, and is continuing to nurture outstanding doctoral human resources who can contribute to carbon neutrality. Going forward, we will also consider developing a cross-disciplinary humanities-sciences fusion program for graduate students.

We hold periodic open seminars at the Waseda Earth Regeneration School in the Research Institute for Science and Engineering, and, in the future, we are considering programs that can include even high school students and working adults.
