Message from the President
Today, the world is rapidly globalizing due to advanced information technology. However, not all people are living a happy life with this highly progressive technology. Then, what do we have to learn from this? To build a peaceful society, it is important for each of us to live a better life, while making use of our own knowledge and skills.
Miyakonojo KOSEN's students learn advanced and practical science and technology. However, to become a trustworthy person, it is necessary not only to acquire knowledge and skills in classes, but also to have teamwork, communication skills, sensitivity, and a calm mind. These can be cultivated through actual experiences, such as club activities and contests. Every year, KOSEN holds many kinds of contests, including the National Kosen Robocon. There are also various sports and cultural club activities in each school.
Miyakonojo City is the birthplace of the Shimazu family, which produced Nariakira Shimazu. He realized at the end of the Edo period that Japan had been behind the rest of the world. He went ahead of his time and worked on various technological innovations. As a college of technology established in that historic place, we will do our best to develop reliable human resources to meet the expectations of the region.
