Industry-academia collaboration system that connects with companies

Musashi University is based on the The Three Founding Principles of the founding of the university, and in accordance with the philosophy of "Liberal Arts & Science", the basic goal of education is to cultivate Comprehensive Knowledge, Specialized Knowledge, and the ability to collaborate with others and practical skills. In order to lead to such human resource development, we have adopted a learning method (PBL*) that presents solutions to problems given to actual companies by industry-academia collaboration.
From the company side, we receive a challenge called "Proposal for Issues Surrounding the Company". After the students investigate the company in charge from various angles, they come up with proposals for various issues facing the company, and compile the contents into a "booklet" with design and content appropriate for the company in charge.
