In March 2025, Kansai University of International Studies signed a partnership agreement with Miki City and the Miki City Golf Association to promote golf. In April 2026, the university will open a "Golf Management Course" in the Department of Regional Management (Miki Campus) of the Faculty of Business Administration, building a cooperative system for the sustainable development of the region, with a focus on developing human resources who will support golf as an industry.
The newly established "Golf Management Course" has been featured on the exam information website "Miraizu" as shown below. The article includes comments from Vice President Yamashita Yasuo and Professor Uemura Kazumi, who is in charge of the course, so please take a look.
