Instructor

Instructor So Ikeda
Message from the instructor Based on my approximately 30 years of experience as a businessman, I strive to impart to my seminar students perspectives and knowledge that can be implemented in society. After graduation, I maintain relationships with alumni as fellow working professionals, offering advice and support on work-related matters.

Voices of seminar students

  • In the lectures, the instructor explains things gently, in detail, and carefully so that the seminar students can easily understand, making it very easy to follow.
  • When we have guest lecturers, we can hear a variety of stories and gain a more objective perspective on things.
  • The opportunity to participate in joint seminars with other universities is invaluable, and working together as a team of people you've just met to create a single presentation is a valuable experience as it develops skills that will be essential even after you enter the workforce.
