At Kiryu University, established in 2008, the educational philosophy is "Training a wide range of professionals through practical practice" to acquire high education and reliable technology. The Kiryu College Junior College that was renamed in the same year has the educational objective of "training people with expertise and skills, active in society as a specialist, capable of taking leadership" as a specialist.
Kiryu University and the Kiryu University Junior College Department, in order to carefully consider the entire environment surrounding the university and deepen exchanges with the local society through practice, not only in terms of academic and research activities but also welfare volunteers, public lectures, sports, culture, Environmental conservation, and other activities are incorporated as "human education."
The 21st century is often referred to as the "era of life science." Life science covers a wide range of fields, from fundamental to applied science. At Kiryu University, we strive to enable our students to become specialists in applied fields of healthcare, specifically nursing and nutrition. To embody this university's spirit, our educational policy is centered on promoting "professional practice." While recognizing the importance of practical skills within these disciplines, we equally consider the vital role humanities play in preparing students to lead meaningful lives and to be active and responsible leaders in society.
We will raise the quality of academic life for students and provide a superior and detail-oriented education. By doing so, we will nurture promising human resources who contribute to society.
The School of Healthcare consists of two departments, the Department of Nursing, which seeks to prepare graduates to become outstanding nurses committed to providing exceptional healthcare, and the Department of Nutrition, which provides students with the knowledge and skills to become registered dietitians.
The junior college offers two two-year programs: the Art and Design Department and the Life Science Department. These two departments train students to become art professionals and dietitians, respectively. Also, we have a one-year Midwifery course for graduates who wish to obtain eligibility requirements to sit for the national licensure examinations for midwives.
Recognized as a small but distinctive university located in Kiryu and Midori cities, our university has built its foundation as a university deeply rooted in the community. With its small number of students and intricately designed curriculum, our university offers the unique advantage of fostering effective and engaging communication between students and faculty.
In the university cafe and restaurant, reasonably priced and nutritionally balanced lunches are offered under the guidance of the Department of Life Sciences teaching staff, making it a place for mutual exchange between students and teachers. Also, trees around the campus make it an idyllic learning environment.
