Outline of the event
theme
Aiming for the enhancement of higher education and the development of local communities
~Exploring the Infinite Possibilities of University Consortiums~
Purpose of the Tournament
The restructuring of higher education and contribution to local communities through industry-academia-government collaboration, as outlined by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology in its “Grand Design for Higher Education for 2040,” are the themes that “Gakuen City Hachioji” has been working on for about half a century. As universities and other institutions return to the city center and the new image of campuses due to the shift to online is being examined due to the coronavirus pandemic, we would like to review the characteristics of “suburban campuses” that are different from “urban campuses” and the value of the “University Consortium,” and make this an opportunity for people all over the country to think about the direction that the university consortium should aim for and the means to achieve it.

Subcommittee 1 “Attempts and Issues in Human Resource Development for Regional Revitalization”
(Contact: Academic, Cultural and Industrial Network Tama)
“Regional revitalization” is being tackled by the public and private sectors. However, the results generally remain scarce. I wonder why. It has been mentioned that “human resource development” is one of the most important strategies for creating the attractiveness of the region, but it is necessary to carefully examine whether it has been realized. We will consider the possibilities and challenges of a business plan that makes full use of people, goods, money, and IT, taking advantage of the strengths of industry-academia-government collaboration, which is pioneered by Network Tama, including matters discussed by Keidanren’s subcommittee.

Session 2 “Promoting Diversity in Higher Education Institutions” (Contact: Mie Higher Education Consortium)
For three years from the first year of Reiwa, we took the opportunity of commissioning the project from Mie Prefecture to plan classes and public lectures on diversity, and worked to spread the idea of promoting diversity throughout the prefecture. Classes were held on a variety of themes from faculty members of the consortium, which encompasses a wide variety of schools and faculties. In addition to reviewing the project, we will consider how inter-university collaboration should be in the university consortium and how to develop the results of the project.

(Contact: University Consortium Hachioji)
We will introduce the “charm of Hachioji” from the perspective of students, based on operational data and other information about the multiple industry-academia-government collaboration events (student presentations, student planning project subsidies, commercial contests) that have been held for many years and the efforts of the Hachioji City Gakuen City Culture Division with students as the main characters. Through these case studies, we will consider and discuss the ideal form of industry-academia-government collaboration centered on students and students’ awareness of the area where the university is located.
