Graduate School of Policy Studies
Nurturing advanced researchers capable of planning policies from a broad perspective, transcending academic fields
The Graduate School of Policy Studies cultivates individuals with advanced research skills based on a foundation of rich scholarly knowledge which they will need to engage in both research and specialist work. Like many policy research graduate schools in the West, our researchers have experience making policies in the real world, which makes our graduate school unique in Japan. Our graduate school is engaged in rich, diverse research conducted by individuals with hands-on experience in policy-making. We aim to nurture leaders of the future, people who have both the deep theoretical knowledge backed by academic research and advanced practical skills honed in the real world.
