Mentor System and Project-based Leader Training Program for Enhancing Practical Skills

As shown on the diagram right, we envisage six types of mentors, enabling students to obtain a broad range of specialized skills. In addition, students can have firsthand contact with a mentor's management, communication abilities, and personal qualities by spending time with the mentor at his or her workplace. Such interaction will allow students to improve their skills. At present, we are negotiating with prospective mentors who are active in their fields. Affiliations of the prospective mentors are shown on the right.
