Excellence and Innovation in Synergy toward a Leading University
創造と変革を先導する大学

Over more than a century of history, Tohoku University's tradition of "Research First", philosophy of "OpenDoor" and ethos of "Practice-Oriented Research and Education" have produced excellent graduates, generated
numerous research achievements and contributed to the development of a peaceful and just society.

We published the Tohoku University Vision 2030, which describes an ideal form
for Tohoku University for the year 2030 and specifies mid/long-term policies andspecific actions to achieve it. It lays out 19 strategic priorities for implementing
four pillars of education, research, cooperation with the community, andadministrative innovations.

Research First

1907

Tohoku University Vision 2030

The "Research First" principle called upon
scholars to not only pursue highly productive
research but to also put their findings towork in the teaching of their students.

Open Door
Tohoku University has firmly adhered
to its "Open Door" policy. It was thefirst Japanese university to accept
female and international students,
and that liberal tradition has certainly
continued to this day.

Practice Orientation"Practice-Oriented Research and
Education" has long been one of
the core values of Tohoku University,whereby the fruits of leading-edge
research are put to practical use forthe benefit of society and toward
improving living standards.

The Great East Japan Earthquake

Recovery and Reconstruction Activities
The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred on March 11, 2011 and had a magnitudeof 9.0, the largest ever recorded in Japan. It inflicted extensive damage on theuniversity and the surrounding Tohoku region. However, we were able to ensure
student safety and fortunately there were no human losses on our campuses.
We worked hard to restore the university's educational and research infrastructure,
and were able to start the new academic year two months later. The university is
deeply grateful to all those in Japan and abroad who provided encouragement
and timely relief efforts.

Institute for Disaster Reconstruction and Regeneration Research
The Institute for Disaster Reconstruction and Regeneration Research was established in April 2011 to consolidate, disseminate,
and implement university-wide efforts related to research, education, and social contributions aimed at recovery fromthe Great East Japan Earthquake. As a university located in the center of the affected area, Tohoku University has a historic
mandate to exert every effort toward reconstruction. In cooperation with the local and national government,the university isdeveloping eight projects and over 100 action plans to lead the reconstruction of the Tohoku region and the revitalizationof Japan.
3｜Tohoku University

Responding to the "new normal" required by our times, Tohoku University is
working to lead innovation in the global community. As part of this effort we havefounded "Be Global", a new project to assist international education. "Be Global"
will address the obstacles that the COVID-19 pandemic poses to international
exchange, study abroad, and collaborative/experiential active learning while
extending learning/living assistance to students striving to realize their potential
as global leaders. In doing so, it will construct a new model for further developing
international education support systems at Tohoku University.

Tohoku University takes social responsibility seriously and we are fully committed to collaborating with our partners - athome and abroad- in the fight against the deadly coronavirus.
To coordinate our efforts, the university has launched a collaborative project focused on coronavirus research. History has
shown that we can overcome great challenges by working together and leveraging our strengths.

Starting Grants for Research toward Resilient Society (SGRRS)

Tohoku University has adopted 10 projects for the "SGRRS".

The seven pillars of research project, Co-Pro7

The project seeks to establish a framework to identify problems and resolve them.
At the heart of this are collaborative projects. Further initiatives include developing
research centers that revolutionize society and digital communication, allowing
humanity to adapt and respond effectively to the coronavirus.

*Co-Pro7 means "Seven Collaborative Research Projects for COVID-19".

Reunion of Cultures

Tohoku University International Festival

Welcome to Tohoku University

With over 30 years of history, the Tohoku University International Festival
is a venue for exchange between students and the community.
It could not be held in 2020 or 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
but in 2022 it was resumed under the theme of "Reunion of Cultures,"attracting students, staff, alumni, and people from the community. It wasa wonderful opportunity to celebrate diversity and different cultures.

Future Global Leadership Program

The International Festival is organized primarily by the students. The
main stage features folk songs, traditional dance, a runway showcasing
traditional clothing, and various other events. The students also operated
10 stalls serving food from around the world.

We currently offer three undergraduate
courses in the science and engineering fields
with classes for 4-year bachelor's degrees
beginning on October 1 every year.
For graduate students, we also conduct morethan 20 master and doctor courses taught
in English in a wide variety of disciplines.

This International Festival provides an opportunity to create connections
between Tohoku University students, builds bridges of tolerance andsolidarity among people from various world cultures, and creates anenriching environment.

The Tohoku University Future Global
Leadership (FGL) program offers degrees
taught in English to brilliant students fromaround the world.

Short-Term Student Exchange Programs

Tohoku University has resumed in-person short programs, mainly forstudents from partner schools.
The university was able to accept students for these programs forthe first time in three years due to the relaxing of governmental
immigration restrictions.

For more details, please refer to the information
on pages 9 and 10.

The students experienced the "realJapan" through substantial content,such as seminars on Japaneseculture, collaborative study with
Tohoku University students, andexchange activities.
The short programs are explainedon page 18.
