Introduction
The present handbook is a revised version of the one published in 2012 to help our new
faculty members learn more about teaching and research work at Nagoya University. It
has two primary aims:
To provide new faculty members with the information they need to get started in their
work,
and
To provide basic information on the educational and research environment at Nagoya
University.
The handbook provides general information and indicates where to get more details on
work rules, information networks, academic procedures, and disaster response — matters that all faculty should be aware of. It is intended to serve as a guide by providing theminimum, yet sufﬁcient, amount of information necessary for the new faculty members to
begin working at the University smoothly.
We hope that everyone will ﬁnd this handbook to be of use for their teaching and research activities.

From academic year 2011 onwards, an evaluation system using a ﬁve-step scale, S-A-B-C-F,
has been introduced for students newly admitted to a bachelor program at Nagoya University,where a four-step scale was previously used.
Students pass with a grade of “S” through “C”
and fail with a grade of “F” under the ﬁve-stepevaluation system. Assuming that a raw score of
100 points is a perfect score, 100-90 points are
an “S” grade, 80-89 points are an “A” grade, 7079 points are a “B” grade, 60-69 points are a “C”

2 Starting teaching and research activities

Course type Course style

grade, and 59 or less are an “F” grade.
However, students who entered undergraduate
schools in AY 2010 or before are evaluated using
the traditional four-step scale (“excellent,” “good,”“average,” and “fail”). A four-step evaluation system (A, B, C, D) is used in graduate programs.
At the graduate school, there are four evaluationlevels (A, B, C and D), with the exceptions of theJD Program for Legal Practice at the Graduate
School of Law and the Graduate School of Engineering.
Upon the adoption of the ﬁve-step evaluation24

system in the undergraduate programs, a Grade
Point Average (GPA) system has also been introduced for students newly admitted to the undergraduate schools in AY 2011 or later. In thissystem, the average grade for all graded courses
is calculated, which is expected to stimulate stu-

dents’ motivation in their studies.
However, the GPA system is not used at thegraduate school, with the exception of the JD
Program for Legal Practice at the Graduate
School of Law (Law School).
Grade evaluation standards of the undergraduate
and graduate schools will be reviewed in 2020.

① The GPA is deﬁned by the following formula at Nagoya University.

GPA =4.3 × S credits + 4 × A credits + 3 × B credits + 2 × C credits
S credits + A credits + B credits + C credits + F credits② Courses that students registered for but received an “absent” for are not included in the calculation of the

GPA.
③ Courses graded on a pass/fail basis are not included in the calculation of the GPA.
④ Courses taken at another university for which credits were transferred to the student’s record at Nagoya

University are not used in calculating GPA.
⑤ Courses which are not prescribed as graduation requirements, such as optional or teacher-training

courses, are not reﬂected in the GPA despite of using the ﬁve-step system for such courses.
⑥ If students re-take a failed course (graded “F”) and receive an “S”, “A”, “B”, “C” or “F” the second time,

the ﬁrst F will not be counted in the Cumulative GPA. (The GPA will be overwritten with the grade received
the second time.)⑦ Grades ﬁnalized at the end of each semester are reﬂected both in the Semester GPA and the Cumulative
GPA, both of which are shown in student grade reports.
Semester GPA: A GPA value based on the number of credits and F-graded credits a student obtainedin a particular semester.
Cumulative GPA: A Cumulative GPA value based on the number of credits and F-graded credits a
student has obtained since enrollment.

■ Course evaluation questionnaireWith the aim of improving instruction, the curriculum, and classroom environments, Nagoya University asks its students to respond to a questionnaire
in order to assess teaching and learning. As the results of the questionnaire are given to each instructor to provide feedback, you should make use ofthem to improve your class.
When: Once a semester/quarter.
Target: Students, TAs and instructors for all
courses offered under the category of Liberal Arts
and Sciences.
For specialized courses offered at each school,and graduate program courses, targets differ according to school and graduate school.
Method: Multiple choice (marking sheets) andfree descriptive questionnaires will be used for all
courses offered under the category of Liberal Arts
and Sciences.
For specialized courses offered at each school and25
25

graduate program courses, questionnaire methods
differ according to school and graduate school.

■ Granting of degrees
The degrees conferred by Nagoya University(bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral , anddegrees)areprofessionalprescribed under the “Nagoya University Degree
Rules”, which sets out matters related to the typesof degree, the conditions for conferring degrees,
degree screening, decisions on the confermentof degrees, and diplomas. Details are prescribedunder the degree screening internal regulations at
each graduate school.
Nagoya University Degree Rules can beviewed at the following website.

2-2. How to respond in a lesson when there is a natural
disaster
Nagoya University has prescribed how to respond to a natural disaster in the Nagoya University Guidelines for Weather Disaster Prevention (approved by Executive Board, June 13, 2011).

In the following situations, students must notify
the faculty member teaching the class of their absence promptly at a later date.
As a rule, students who live in areas or who needto commute through areas where storm warnings
have been issued are not required to attend theclasses, etc.
If local transportation is halted due to warnings other than a storm warning, or if students
feel that they may be in physical danger due toweather disasters, students do not have to makean unreasonable or undue effort to attend the
University.

※ All staff including faculty can take special leave(paid leave in addition to paid annual leave in thecase of contract employees or part-time employees, etc.) if it is extremely difﬁcult to cometo work because of weather disasters and public
transportation suspension caused thereby, or if
it would be necessary to leave work early in order to avoid physical injury on the way home. In
this case, a decision on whether special leave
can be granted shall be made in consideration of
the need to avoid danger, the possibility of using
alternative modes of public transport, and otherindividual circumstances.

2 Starting teaching and research activities

In case a storm warning (“Bofu Keihou”) was issued for the Nagoya city area, all classes, regular
exams, etc. by Nagoya University (including theones which are conducted other than Nagoya city)scheduled to be held after the issue of the storm
warning will be cancelled. Students are not required
to attend the University when classes or otherevents are cancelled in this way.
However, if the warning for the Nagoya city area
is lifted by 6:45 a.m., classes will be held startingwith ﬁrst-period classes. While if the warning is liftedby 11:00 a.m., classes will be held as scheduledstarting with third period classes.
(Classes and other arrangements of the Graduate School of Law are prescribed separately by
the graduate school.)

The response of faculty and staff members is prescribed as follows.

2-3. Inputting a syllabus (course outline)27
27

The systems and procedures for entering acourse syllabus (information to be entered, entry
method, entry deadline, etc.) depend on the schoolor graduate school that is offering the class. If youteach both a course under the category of the Liberal Arts and Sciences and a specialized course
offered at each school, you need to log in to therespective syllabus systems.

If you are taking over a class as a newly-appointed instructor, in most cases you will send the syllabus as a digital ﬁle, such as a Word document,
to the person in charge of student affairs section atyour department before the end of the preceding
academic year. (This is because inputting the syllabus on the syllabus system of departments is often
restricted on campus.)

With regard to Liberal Arts and Sciences courses
for the following academic year, the Administrative
Ofﬁce of the Institute of Liberal Arts and Sciences
will e-mail you requesting syllabus entry and informyou of the entry method in mid-December. (The entry deadline is early January.) Likewise, you will be
notiﬁed of the syllabus entry method and deadline
for specialized courses offered at each school andgraduate program courses via e-mail by the person in charge of educational affairs at your school/
graduate school.

From your second year onwards, course instructors need to input the syllabus after logging
in directly to the prescribed syllabus input system.
Please input the syllabus within the designated period based on the instructions you receive from theperson in charge of student affairs section.
In order to input a syllabus, you need to be awareof the rules pertaining to the school or graduate
school in question or to each course category andof curricular information. Please obtain student
handbooks and academic guides, etc. issued byeach school or graduate school in advance andread them carefully.

one year and a unit cost of 100,000 yen
or more), or books (books with ongoingvalue as reference materials), etc.

100,000 yen), books (magazines), stationery, reagents, laboratory animals, experimental materials and other supplies

Travelexpenses

Cost of trips taken in Japan or overseas by researchers, members of a
research project or other research partners in order to collect materials, carryout surveys, hold research meetings, orannounce research results, etc., for the
purposes of carrying out research

will not be covered, depending on thetype of research funding.

■ Carrying over and reimbursing

external funds
As a general rule, grants and commissions fromnational government cannot be carried over nor
used in the following year. However, in the case of
Kakenhi, it is possible to carry over funding if there
are unavoidable reasons that could not have been
predicted at the time the decision was made toward the funding, and if the necessary procedures
are carried out. Moreover, funding can be carriedover to future years without carrying out procedures
if the research theme is adopted under the Multiyear Fund Scientiﬁc Research Grants (“Kikinbun”).
In the case of Commissioned Research and Joint
Research, there are cases when funding can be
carried over through prior application, dependingon the details and conditions of the agreement, so
please ask the person in charge of research support section at your department.
If any research funding is left over, please returnthe funds without trying to carry out unnecessary
dispersal in an attempt to use up the funding.

■ Misuse
Drafting fraudulent documents that do not reﬂect
the true situation, submitting these to the university
as facts, or causing improper research fund expenditure in the following ways is deemed to be misuse,irrespective of whether or not funds have been privately diverted.
ExamplesFalse hiring

False businesstrips, padding oftravel expenses
False orders,
product-switching, or
fraudulent transactions[Kanryu-Koi] Act of reclaiming all or part of thepay or travel expenses already paid to students,
etc. (Kanryu-Koi) is socially unacceptable, irrespective of whether the student, etc. in question has
agreed.

If funding is misused, the researcher will be punished by being ordered to repay the research funds,or through suspension from making funding applications for a ﬁxed period, or criminal procedures.
There are also cases when disciplinary measures
are implemented by Nagoya University. Researchers who conspire to misuse funds or who receive
improper payments will also be disciplined. As theorganization to which the researcher in question is
afﬁliated, Nagoya University will also receive penalties, such as a reduction in indirect expenses, or
suspension of the allocation of funding to all researchers afﬁliated to the university for a ﬁxed period.
