In particular, the system has been organized so that class hours at the partner university can be recognized as the responsible teaching hours of the faculty’s home university, thereby alleviating the burden of responsible teaching hours for faculty members at each university due to the declining school-age population.



This was agreed upon as an example of institutional support that can complement the limitations of human and material resources by sharing the strengths of each university. Based on such institutional improvements, they plan to create a model of leading university sharing cooperation in the future.
