Administrative organization / Technical support organization
AuditorHumankind, despite repeated acts of creation and destruction,has succeeded in its long history, in enhancing an understanding
towards the nature and various social phenomena and thereby developing a highly publicized culture. Universities which are
incurred with the responsibility of academic research have served to bind generations together through creation of knowledge
and fostering of talent, and consequently contributed to the formation and development of a diverse society. And now a new
era has dawned, in which numerous people cross boundaries of states to cooperate on a global scale.
Kanazawa University, inheriting the tradition of its predecessor school, was established in 1949. After undergoing the violent
postwar period, the University has regularly contributed towards the development of Japan and the world. However, with the
new start as a National University Corporation the time has arrived to inquire once again into the true meaning of being“a university dedicated to society”.
Kanazawa University has set as its goal, being “a research university dedicated to education, while opening up its doors toboth local and global society”. Having this as its objective the university will work on reform, with the belief that its activities
will contribute to1) opening up a new 21st century era, and to2) promoting world peace and the continuous development of mankind.
Kanazawa University shall hereby establish as its charter the underlying ideology and objectives.

campus, the Museum also cooperates with educational activities and serves as a museum training facility. The Museumis "designated facility" under the Museum Act.

Technical Support Center
This is an on-campus joint-use facility for the purpose of providing support for technical education and research, as well as
contributing to society by providing technical support and heightening technical awareness to the local community. The
Center has a number of machines ranging from general-purpose to state-of-the-art, and engages in activities such as hands-on
machinery training and manufacturing support for students, designing and manufacturing experimental equipment, providing
technical development consultation, and offering “Monodzukuri” workshops for elementary and junior high school students.

Articulation Center for High School and University
This Center was established to discover, take in, and develop human resources with diverse abilities who will become
leaders in the international community. Its primary tasks are the research and development of admission selection
methods based on the Kanazawa University Global Standards (KUGS), and the development, implementation, andevaluation of the High School and University Articulation Program. It also carries out research on domestic andinternational university entrance examination systems and articulation efforts between high schools and universities.

This Center was established following the reorganization of the School of Teacher Education’s Center for Educational
Practice and Support in April of 2022. In addition to the school support services that had been provided by the Center for
Educational Practice and Support, the Center also provides support for Kanazawa University students who aim to becometeachers and for each school’s teaching program, in cooperation with the prefectural and municipal boards of education,
the Ishikawa Faculty Comprehensive Training Center, and the Ishikawa Shihan Juku (teacher training school).
