Kanazawa University

Over the years, human beings have repeatedly created and destroyed them, deepened their understanding of nature and social phenomena, and fostered a culture of high publicity. Universities that take care of academic research have contributed to the formation and development of diverse societies by connecting generations through the creation of information and the development of human resources. And, the world has now crossed the boundaries of the nation, and we are entering an era in which many people work with each other on a global scale.

Kanazawa University, which was established in 1949 after taking over the history of its predecessor school, has played a certain role in the development of Japan and the world in the turbulent postwar period, but on this occasion as a national university corporation, it is necessary to ask again what "university for society" is.

Based on the recognition that kanazawa university's activities will open up the era of the 21st century and contribute to the peace of the world and the sustainable development of humanity, Kanazawa University will work on reforms based on the position of "a research university with an emphasis on education open to the region and the world", and establish the philosophy and goals based on it as the Kanazawa University Charter.
