*The capacity increase plan will be finalized after the necessary procedures have been completed with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.21Activity reportEducationPlan to increase capacity for information-related programsAY2025Undergraduate program(s)School of Informatics and Data Science1st year capacity: 150 students ► 180 students (increase of 30 students)3rd year transfer admission quota: 5 students ► 20 students (increase of 15 students)Program of Semiconductor Systems, Cluster 2, School of Engineering (newly established)1st year capacity: 55 students Master’s Course(s) Informatics and Data Science Program, Division of Advanced Science and Engineering, Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering 36 students ► 70 students (increase of 34 students)Ms. TSUNADA MikiMainichi Broadcasting System, Inc. Graduated in March 2022When I was a student, I conducted research on video streaming delays by comparing versions 1 to 3 of HTTPS, a representative example of a protocol for exchanging data over computers. Through this experience, I gained a deeper knowledge of video distribution and networks and also became more proactive. When I joined the company, I worked in the General Programming Department, producing program guides and handling a wide range of tasks, from analyzing viewership ratings to ordering subtitles. I have also used my programming skills to propose automation of work processes. In the future, I aim to become a unique talent who can promote internal digital transformation while also being involved in the production of programs that bring smiles to people’s faces.AY2026 and beyond (planned)Undergraduate program(s)Program of Semiconductor Systems, Cluster 2, School of Engineering3rd year transfer admission quota: 10 students Master’s Course(s) 70 students ► 225 students (increase of 155 students)Doctoral Course(s) 10 students ► 30 students (increase of 20 students)A graduate from the School of Informatics and Data Science who is active in a wide range of fieldsProducing digital talent so as to contribute to regional revitalization and Japan’s digital strategyIn AY2018, HU became one of the first in Japan to establish the School of Informatics and Data Science with the aim of cultivating talent that can utilize digital technology in a wide range of fields.In AY2022, we introduced three programs to support diverse career development, allowing students to acquire the knowledge and skills to lead corporate activities through interdisciplinary research and long-term paid internships at local companies. In addition, the university was selected for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s project “Increasing admissions quotas at local national universities to contribute to the realization of attractive local universities,” and the admission quota for the School of Informatics and Data Science has been increased from 80 to 150 students from the 2023 academic year. There is also a scholarship system for students who wish to find employment within Hiroshima Prefecture, and we are producing more than 50 people each year who will lead the digital transformation of local industries in Hiroshima Prefecture.In the same year, HU was the only one in the Chugoku-Shikoku region to be selected for the “Support for Strengthening the Functions of Universities and Colleges of Technology to Secure Human Resources Specialized in Advanced Information Technology (High Level)” project run by the National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education. In response to this, the School of Informatics and Data Science will increase its admission quota to 180 students from the 2025 academic year, expanding the total capacity to 200 students per year, including transfer students. In addition, a new Program of Semiconductor Systems will be established in the School of Engineering Cluster 2 with an admission quota of 55 students, and the capacity for information-related fields at the Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering will also be increased. We plan to significantly increase enrollment in the future, building the largest graduate school program of information sciences in the Chugoku-Shikoku region while also improving our faculty and facilities.HU has been ahead of other national universities in the field of information technology. We will continue to develop human resources who can create new value using digital technology and send these excellent talents into the industrial sector, thereby contributing to regional revitalization and Japan’s digital strategy.Cultivating talent who can utilize digital technology in a variety of fields
