institute overview
Society is in the midst of rapid change due to technological innovations including artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT). In Japan, the emerging society is referred to as a Super-Smart Society. It is our responsibility to promote and control technological innovations to achieve an optimal society for the present and future generations.
Seikei University, which celebrated its 70th anniversary, established the Institute for a Super-Smart Society in 2020 with the support of the Mitsubishi 150th Anniversary Project Committee. In order for industry/government/university leaders and researchers to cooperate and cultivate a new stage in the history of civilization beyond the boundaries of business fields and conditions, the institute will identify needs and promote projects to satisfy them, and return the results to society.
The institute will undertake transdisciplinary research from a comprehensive perspective in order to link science and technology innovations with the true happiness of humankind. It will also conduct collaborative practical activities in cooperation with local government and companies responsible for socially implementing and practicing technology in the field of solving social issues. Keeping a Super-Smart Society alive, it will then conduct human resource development activities focusing on academic materials development, lecture management, and faculty training for people of all ages who support them. These are our three pillars: transdisciplinary research, collaborative practical activities, and human resource development activities.
