The Research Program for Local Publics Human Resources is a graduate-level program which was established in 2003 and is jointly managed by the Graduate School of Business Administration, the Graduate School of Law, and the Graduate School of Policy Studies.

The aim of the program is to foster local public human resources. Such resources are highly specialized professionals who have specific knowledge and problem-solving skills regarding local policies and the management of local communities and public/private organizations based on participation and collaboration.

A special feature of the Research Program for Local Publics Human Resources is that recent university graduates, students who have graduated and already found employment, and graduate students from overseas study together. Individuals who aim to realize a sustainable future learn to build a bridge between academia and practice. We invite you to participate in our research program！
