Hiroshima Kokusai Gakuin University offers student-centered, sensitive, and thorough Education based on our university's founding spirit, 'Education is love' and the educational concept of 'Gentleness, honesty, co-operation, and teamwork.' Our university focuses on contributing to local communities and aims to cultivate students' talent, who mainly find employment with local companies, and are employed as officers and teachers locally, after going through our educational program. A unique feature of our university is that students can study a wide range of subjects and satisfy many intellectual curiosities by undertaking courses, combinations of subjects drawn from the faculties of arts and sciences. This approach corresponds well with the recently emerging issues of globalization, information society, and an aging society. We respect gentleness, honesty, co-operation, and teamwork among our students in an educational system that we call 'Integral Education involving Study with the Whole Body.' Also, customized teaching arrangements for building various capacities and for obtaining licenses are provided. Another unique characteristic of this university life is that every student can enjoy a 'Bright and Fun-filled Joyous College Life.' Toradora Tsuru, the founder of our institute. What drove the founder to dedicate himself to Education appears to have been his profound caring and willingness to give everything he owned to the youth deprived of educational opportunities due to economic, physical, and various other reasons. It was this characteristic that helped his students. He made every effort for those who were poverty-stricken and never gave up on the young who gave in to temptation. The founder's statue was erected in 1965 and had an inscription that reads "Education is Love." Those who carried on the founder's wishes later described the essence of his educational spirit in this message. The founder never publicly announced "Education is Love," but yet, he was the one who put "Education is Love" into practice. Our university's founding spirit, "Education is Love," was therefore created by the founder's educational practice, "Love can never exist without practicing it." This is a message with deep significance. Our institute's mission is to carry on the founder's spirit, faithfully.- Hiroshima Kokusai Gakuin University offers student-centered, sensitive, and thorough Education based on our university's founding spirit, 'Education is love' and the educational concept of 'Gentleness, honesty, co-operation, and teamwork.'
