Department of Finance Finance Course
Graduated from Saitama Prefectural Ageo High School

Having studied business in high school, he was attracted to the more specialized study Department of Finance. He actively participated in seminars and acquired leadership skills, serving as seminar leader.

Second Year

Utilizing accumulated knowledge and focusing on practical learning

Wanting to learn more about financial systems, including securities and investments, I began my studies in my first year in Professor Nakajima's seminar, which specializes in corporate finance. In my second year, I used a website called the "Stock Learning Game" as a study material to simulate stock buying and selling. I made investments by utilizing the knowledge I had gained so far and predicting and understanding the meaning of actions taken by companies. Although I was confused at first, I was able to build a solid foundation by learning about finance from both a theoretical and practical perspective.

3rd and 4th year

Submit a thesis at an off-campus conference and continue individual research in your fourth year

In the third year, participation in competitions both on and off campus was mandatory. So I took part in the Bank of Japan's "Bank of Japan Grand Prix" and the Securities Research Student Federation's "Securities Seminar Competition." At the former, I even did a 3D simulation of solar power generation, proposing a solution to Japan's vacant house problem with solar panels. At the latter, I put together a proposal to improve "problems with financial education in Japan," modeled on Europe and the United States. I'm proud to have put everything I could think into it, and I'm very pleased with the valuable experience I gained from the seminar.

The two of us spent about six months thoroughly researching the "Bank of Japan Grand Prix." The experience of seeing it through has been a great source of nourishment for us.
