Seeking Dialogue and Cooperation with Intellectuals from around the World

In an era of accelerating globalization, Nagasaki University actively welcomes young people from around the world who aspire not only to study in Japan, but specifically in Nagasaki. We have nurtured many individuals who contribute to the resolution of diverse challenges and the development of both local and international communities, aiming for harmony and coexistence in the global society.

Our mission to provide high-quality education and cultivate individuals with refined character and broad cultural understanding who can thrive in the international arena remains unchanged over time.

Guided by this mission, Nagasaki University continues to pursue the realization of Planetary Health. This initiative seeks to address increasingly complex global issues related to health, the environment, and society through the integration of interdisciplinary knowledge. As part of this approach, we promote the fusion of education and research across three key areas: Global Health, Global Risk, and Global Ecology.

As the Office for Global Relations, we are committed to embracing diverse cultures and perspectives more than ever before. We aim to create a space where people with different abilities and ideas can meet, engage in meaningful dialogue, and collaborate. Through these efforts, we will continue to advance distinctive education and research initiatives.
