It has already been 18 years since Hiroshima International University (HIU) was founded in 1998. The university currently has 8 faculties and 10 departments, offering 10 undergraduate majors, 11 post-graduate majors in 5 graduate schools, and 1 1-year course on three campuses－Higashi-Hiroshima, Hiroshima, and Kure.
Japan is now faced with a rapidly aging society. It is predicted that th...e need for advanced medical and nursing care will increase, and “team medical care” will be essential in responding to this demand. It is crucial that various staff in diverse fields work together in an atmosphere of understanding and mutual respect in order to solve the problems as a team. At the same time, local comprehensive care systems are necessary for developing ongoing home-medical care and home-nursing care. Establishing such systems will require not only medical care professionals, nursing care workers, and other specialists, but also the cooperation of local communities and industries as well as the elderly and their families.
In order to meet the demands of communities, HIU has worked to develop professional human resources to play active parts in the field of health, medical services, and welfare. Recognizing the ever-increasing necessity of collaboration among professionals, the university has stressed in its educational approach the idea of “team medical care,” an approach in which students from different faculties learn from and gain professional respect for one another.We believe that it is our duty to help people in the community develop a deeper understanding of self-health care, home care, and self-help, and mutual aid. To this end, HIU will work to establish in its educational and research activities the principles of “compassion” “investigative spirit” and “cooperation.” It is based on these principles that HIU set up “Hiroshima International University standard” in order to verify the university’s educational contents, methods and goals.
HIU has already produced more than 10,000 professionals working in the field of health, medical services, and welfare. It is my deep desire that the university continue to contribute qualified personnel to local communities and global community.
Strengthening our connections with local communities, we contribute to their liveliness. Excellent related facilities help foster connections with the local community. Health fair is held three times a year. We choose the theme every year and organize various events through which health-related information and various opportunities are provided to local people including health monitoring, consultation booth and displays.
Work experience sessions are held to provide children various medical related job experiences including nurse, pharmacist, physical therapist, clinical engineer and radiological technologist. We help the children discover the joy and toughness of working and grow their interest in the future and nurture a rich spirit.
Every year, the music festival is held for local people in Higashi Hiroshima Campus. Concerts by famous artists are held and our university’s extracurricular activity groups, local band and chorus groups by primary, secondary and high school students play as well. We aim at revitalizing the local community with the power of music.
