Kobe Institute of Computing (KIC), Graduate School of Information Technology is just a short walk from Sannomiya Station in　the center of the beautiful city of Kobe. KIC introduces a program to produce "work-ready" professional IT personnel who, regardless of their previous field of education or previous work experience, will be prepared for professional roles in the IT industry. The program ...curriculum is progressively structured in a way that proceeds from foundations to application & practice.
Is it for yourself in order to make your living? That is fine, but we believe you could achieve much more than that. KIC"s motto is "Social Innovation by ICT and yourself," which means you come up with ideas for solving issues in your society utilizing ICT, and take leadership in implementing these solutions for your community, for your country for society as a whole. We believe technology should be used for social good, not for evil.
In order to achieve this, every KIC student learn "Tankyu Practice," our original method to find issues, come up with solution ideas, and improve the ideas through verification processes. Students from 64 countries have learned this method and found it very useful. By learning Tankyu Practice, you are more likely to succeed in your projects.
KIC has more international students than local Japanese students, which is very unique as a Japanese university. Highly motivated and talented students from various countries learn from each other, as well as from our experienced faculty members.
We foster highly motivated individuals who can work in various fields, including engineers to develop software, build information & communication networks, create embedded software, construct and design various information systems. KIC graduates are capable of development management as IT architects and project managers, and can contribute to international cooperation & social development through information communication technology (ICT).
Our Two Targets for Student"s Training:

• Professionals who can provide technical solutions to social issues by the design and maintenance of new systems using their own ICT skills.
• Highly insightful experts who are able to demonstrate leadership in problem solving practice, with the cooperation of ICT technicians.

Students develop their skills through "ICT" based subjects and "Social Development and Innovator System" subjects. Students are able to combine the knowledge and skills gained through these subjects and apply them to the TANKYU Practice and Specific Themed Research which lie at the heart of the university.
For each of the issues in the Specific Theme Research, students are required to build and verify a hypothesis for providing new value using ICT technology. The students will also perform a thorough investigation and discuss the results and implications.
On top of this, students will confirm the uniqueness of their solution by investigating similar solutions, as well as verifying the possibility of realization by investigating income/expense balance through cost simulation. The student"s findings are completed as an action plan and written up as a master"s thesis.
In order to develop skilled professionals, our faculty consists of experienced corporate pioneers from companies such as SONY and Panasonic who cooperate with a variety of researchers and education experts, to instill practical capabilities through group work, and simulated projects.
For challenges in the real world, various factors complicate progress, and for such problems, you need to have the power to discover their essence. In the curriculum of KIC, you will develop this power through “TANKYU Practice” exercises and “Specific Theme Research”.
By taking ICT and social development-related lectures and working on solving actual issues beside government-sponsored students from developing countries, it is possible to learn international cooperation, social development, and social innovation.
KIC is actively developing academic agreements and cooperation with various institutions both in Japan and overseas, in order to create a rich educational environment that promotes developing advanced ICT human resources, who can be successful internationally.
