Nitobe College Honors Program: Graduate Curriculum aims to develop students into professionals with “3+1 Competencies,”(Ability for Sustainable Personal Development; Team Organization & Management Skills; Capacity for Knowledge Sharing &Application for Social Benefit; and Professional Ethics), which are considered essential to thrive in a globalizing world.
Toward this goal, in this course, students with different specialties form teams and propose solutions to given problems throughcollaboration that leverages the strengths of their respective specialties. Students investigate causes and precedents, analyze
supporting data in the context of the problem, integrate different ideas, and create original solutions. In addition, students willconsider whether solutions can be implemented by considering business plans, etc., and make presentations aimed at stakeholders.
到達目標 Course Goals

By completing this course, students will be able to:- Organize and manage team for productive collaboration (clarification and fulfillment of given roles);- Propose evidence-based solutions to given problems with reference to data from similar case studies;- Design the research process and methods, and allocate available resources toward solutions;- Make well-structured and cogent presentation of project outcomes;- Understand what entrepreneurship is.
授業計画 Course ScheduleThis course adopts problems that students address broad and interdisciplinary social issues, such as Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs). Instructors will give short lectures on a survey and research methodology such as data collection and analysis and the ethicalresponsibilities associated with them necessary to approach the issues. Students engage in team projects for problem solving.

【Project】- Students are given problems to address and solve from Nitobe College instructors and/or guest lecturers (who are usually experts
in the thematic fields);- Students are expected to propose innovative and feasible solutions to given problems, collecting and analyzing suitable data andtaking advantage of strengths of different approaches from distinct fields of study;- Students overview the given problem and clarify the tasks to achieve solutions to set a schedule toward the final presentation which
is held in the final session. Using the knowledge and tools of project management such as Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Ganttchart, role assignment and risk management, the project proposal is created to get the overview of the process. Students are expectedto adopt a suitable method from social survey including interview and questionnaire to implement their research process.
- Students conduct the research project according to the plan. They are required to contribute to teamwork by searching reference,
making a resume or any contributions outside of the class if s/he does not engage in-class discussion. The research materials andprogress of the project are logged and shared within the team using Nitobe Portfolio (NPF) system.
- Through developing business plans, etc, the students consider how the proposed solution can be made into a feasible project that will
benefit society. As necessary, we invite lecturers from inside and outside Hokkaido University to give lectures on entrepreneurshipand how to start up a company.
【Presentations】- Students present their survey results and conclusions for a given task. They consider the contents of the presentation and slide
design, and then practice for compelling presentations. Students will explain the conclusions reached by the team in order and aim
for a presentation that is easy for the audience to understand.
- As part of the Nitobe College's educational goal of knowledge sharing and application for social benefit, in this course, presentations
are basically open to the public as well as the stakeholders.
【Review & Reflection】
Students reflect on what learned and not learned through this course and review their research process and conclusion to consider
how much the obtained solution can solve the problem, what are remained as unsolved problems, and what can be found as newproblems. Furthermore, they are expected to think what can be shared as social benefits or values associated with the solution.
