Message from the head of the high school-university collaboration office

Thank you for visiting the website of Kansai International University High School-University Collaboration Office.

Everyone feels the importance of cultivating human resources who have the "zest for living" in today's society, where the future is difficult to predict. I believe it is.

To fulfill this role, we have established a department specializing in high school-university collaboration since 2021, and have been working on various collaborations with many high schools in a way that is distinct from public relations activities of the university. In 2022, we have implemented a total of 90 high school-university collaboration projects.

We want high school students to experience university learning, learn about the world beyond their daily learning, and realize the importance of daily learning to face it.And in that process, high school and university teachers are connected.These are the major goals and significance of high school-university collaboration that our university envisions.

This time, we have significantly revised the "Knowledge List", which is the core of our high school-university collaboration efforts.This is a list that summarizes the knowledge of our university, making it easier for high school students to search.It is filled with the passion of our faculty and staff members who want to help high schools.The information is also posted on this website, so please take advantage of it, and if you have any questions about high school-university collaboration, please feel free to contact the high school-university collaboration office.
