Welcome to NTNU's Japan Program Homepage! NTNU's Japan programme was formally established in 1998, however, its prehistory dates back to the beginning of the 1990s, with a cooperative measure between NTNU and some industrial partners being established in 1995. The background was the recognition that industry needed staff with not only an education in technology or the natural sciences but also a sound grasp of the issues involved with international trade, interaction with other cultures and foreign institutions. This need was particularly acute when it came to research and commercial activities in Asia. As Japan is the locomotive behind much of the economic development in the region, this country was selected as the focal point for this initiative. |
| | News:Seminar on Eldercare, Sep. 2007
Japan is among the most rapidly aging countries in the world. The ageing of populations has sparked a search for models providing long-term care to the growing number of frail and elderly people. This seminar seeks to provide a forum for the sharing of knowledge regarding the distribution, organization and provision of eldercare. You are welcome to participate in and share experiences and viewpoints during this seminar, to be held 20-21 September. This seminar is sponsored by a generous grant from the Japan Foundation.
