The Graduate School of Human Development, based on pedagogy, psychology, subject education, childcare, and social welfare, emphasizes collaboration with other academic fields and develops specialized education and research, both theoretical and empirical, practical and clinical, on the various "developmental crises of children" that appear in all aspects of life, and on the "human developmental crisis" throughout the life cycle. The Master's Program offers specialized education and research in theoretical and empirical as well as practical and clinical areas.
Through such systematic education and research, the Master's Course aims to nurture "highly-skilled professionals" who address the above-mentioned important issues that must be resolved jointly by the government, local communities, and schools, as well as "highly-skilled and intellectually-qualified human resources" who can play an active role in the community.
In the doctoral course, we train researchers from universities, colleges, etc., who are equipped with independent research capabilities in human development studies, and professionals with advanced research competencies.
