This university, which was started with 1 faculty and 1 department, was established in 1967 as the only single-department college in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions dedicated to the field of economics.
In the more than 50 years since then, this school has sent forth gifted and talented individuals that have helped to sustain local economies, communities, and cultures, and by constantly anticipating the trends of each era and the changing needs of society, it continues to further enhance the scope of the education it offers.
As a comprehensive social sciences university currently composed of 3 faculties and 5 departments, we enable students to acquire a broad range of refined knowledge, human resourcefulness, and wide ranging yet applicable specialized knowledge, and furthermore, we strive to foster the growth of talented human resources capable of playing an active role on the front lines of the rapidly changing fields of business, and in doing so, we aim to provide an even richer educational experience.
