* ■About the technical college*
Technical colleges are 5-year higher education institutions where students, after graduating from junior high school, learn the knowledge and skills necessary to become engineers who can enter society. It is an educational system unique to Japan and is
internationally recognized as “KOSEN.”
●What is an engineer? Various specialized fields
An engineer is a person who works in a profession that utilizes specialized skills. There are many different types of engineers, so technical colleges have “Mechanical/Materials,”
“Electrical/Electronic,” “Information,”
“Construction/Architecture,” “Chemical/Biological,” “Merchant Marine,” and “Economics/Business.” We have departments in a variety of fields, including:
●Learning at a technical college
In addition to general subjects similar to those in high school, students study specialized subjects from the first year. As the school year progresses, students learn more specialized content. Through extensive experiments and practical training, you will acquire theory and practice, and upon graduation you will be able to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to become an engineer.
●Course
We have a strong reputation in industry, and our graduates find employment in a variety of fields. In addition, many students go on to further education, such as by entering a major (proceeding within a technical college) or transferring to a university.
