To improve our University's research, the Division of Research Development discusses and makes decisions related to formulating the University's research promotion strategy, setting up systems for supporting research and promoting the introduction of external competitive funds, improving research ethics, publishing research results, exploring issues related to the proper use of research funds, and other university-wide matters pertaining to research.
In order to revitalize research activities and strengthen the research support system, Kansai University has assigned University Research Administrators (URAs) who oversee the strategic planning and management of research activities and outreach of research results. Through their support, URAs can create an environment for researchers to focus on their research activities. As a result, the University's research output improves and brings new value to a changing society, thereby deepening the University's motto, "GAKU-NO-JITSUGE (Harmony between Academia & Society)."
The Kansai University Video Archive highlights the educational and research efforts of the university's faculty members, sharing its unique expertise and appeal with audiences both within and beyond the university community.
