The main concerns of this project are the perspective of social innovation (i.e., social transformation through new ideas) and the methodology of community solutions (i.e., problem solving by the community). We focus on approaches that cut across society, the economy, culture, and technology, where cultural contexts exist behind economic systems, where spontaneously formed consumer communities are critical success factors for corporate activities, and where elements traditionally considered "weak" are in fact the key to problem solving. We will focus on approaches that cut across social, economic, cultural, and technological boundaries. We will conduct empirical research, theory building, policy proposals, system design and tool development, and fieldwork on game theory, social capital theory, traditional organizational theory such as "yui, kouza, and za," community evaluation methods, social marketing, sports business, innovation through policy, etc. Fieldwork will be conducted.

As the globalization of our physical and virtual space proceeds, understanding our multi-lingual and multi-cultural community and the ability to communicate with others are becoming gaining in importance. Foreign language education, which is based on diverse languages, aims to educate human resources, fostering leaders who can solve diverse societal problems. At the same time this project will instruct the participants in the basics of the foreign language education research, not only focusing on the practical approach but also on how to conduct quantitative experimental research as well as qualitative empirical research.

This project aims at establishing research methodology to examine and discuss "experience in life". The issues are to develop academic disciplines and techniques to
(1) verbalize on
(2) encourage and enrich
(3) pass onto others and younger generation
one's own experiences.

Projects in the age of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) require the bird’s eye view capability and the multifaceted approach that can accept diversity high-level ability to exploit an abduction based on fundamental research with the robust aspiration and deep-rooted philosophy. We will establish an Academic Project who has accumulated expertise in science, technology, and policy through our social system concept and aims to establish shared values for society.
This academic project （AP） makes use of research methods proper to humanities in order to examine cultural issues that our societies face in the processes of globalization. Putting a focus on 1) language expression, 2) thoughts, 3) systems as research areas, we will analyze theoretically what these issues mean for a human subject and study practically how they can be resolved through the redesign of systems.
Among many challenges raised in contemporary societies, transcultural phenomenon will be an important research topic in this academic project. This phenomenon appears on an individual and a collective level, taking various forms. It can be observed in the relation between a person and his/her native language(s), or between immigrants and host societies for example. Problems raised in such a situation lead us to think seriously about how to design and construct a new relation between individuals and groups or communities.
To tackle this challenge, we specifically pay attention to research areas in which humanities approaches are appropriate, like literature as a form of language expression, or philosophy and thoughts. Methodologically, we investigate the meaning of the human experiences in contemporary societies and cultures from the standpoint, not of “explanation” (Erklären), but of “comprehension” (Verstehen).
It should be added that the social and cultural experiences mentioned above occur beyond the existing social or political frameworks because of globalization in process. This requires also rethinking of systems in order to handle the problems of language, nationality or immigration. These practical issues are also taken into account in this project.

This project aims to acquire data that spans various scales from cities, areas, shops and machinery, etc. and solve the problems existing there by returning the results of analysis and processing of the data to users, residents, business operators and local governments. We also aim to establish a technological, economic and social ecosystem including technologies and institutions necessary to develop those functions and properties. In particular, the objective of this project is to analyze the problem solving practically using IoT and AI, and to analyze it across various sciences. Technically, intellectual edge technology for operating AI in the terminal equipment, basic technology for distributing sensor data on a large scale, and processing of multiple data streams integrally to produce highly value-added information Data analysis technology and others are targeted. Economically, when assuming the distribution of information to be produced through the market, there are mainly research methods such as the method of technically creating such a market, asymmetry of information, the price determination mechanism of information, etc. . In accordance with these issues and themes, students and faculty members belonging to different master's research societies will share the research results of each other and advance the practice of research results in society.

In this academic project, we will examine, research, and practice the opportunities for creativity in everyday life. While much research has been done on creativity in the arts, science, and product/service development, we believe that there is still room and potential for further exploration and research on small creative acts and creative activities in our daily lives and work. The purpose of this project is to promote research on such ‘creativity in everyday life.’
Participants will present their research and activities related to ‘creation in everyday life,’ and other participants will give feedback from their own perspectives and nurture them with love, and in some cases lead to collaboration and development. Through these activities, we will generate knowledge for the future “Creative Society” and develop people who have the ability to practice and research ‘creativity in everyday life.’

The pioneers of art have always been active in introducing scientific knowledge and discoveries. Similarly, the pioneers of science have always valued artistic intuition and insight. To begin with, the classification of art and science has changed over time, and many of the past activities that we in the present regard as art were not classified as art at the time. What can be said with certainty is that the creation of something new requires both intuition and insight based on particularity and verification based on data and experience.
In today's world, where technology has penetrated into every corner of our lives, where problems are intricately interconnected, and where society is changing at a breakneck pace, dialogue and collaboration between artists and scientists is becoming increasingly important.
Research institutions such as NASA, ESA, and CERN are now inviting artists-in-residence and employing artists on a full-time basis.
Based on this recognition, this project invites graduate students whose research themes include the interdisciplinary fields of art and science, science in art, and art in science, to participate in a common environment for research promotion, concept building, discussions, and workshops.

Computers are very widely used these days by everyone, but many computer systems are still hard to use because the user interface is not sophisticated enough. In this class, we pick up various aspects of current user interface systems and discuss research topics and future trends.
