Introduction
|
|
History
Nagasaki university is located in Nagasaki City, which
is the capital of Nagasaki Prefecture. The City lies astride
a deep bay surrounded by mountains and is called the "Naples
of the Orient" because of its good harbor and characteristic
location. Nagasaki Prefecture is faced to the East China
Sea shared with China, and other Asian countries.
|
|
Nagasaki is proud
of its colorful history and natural beauty. For a long
period of time, Nagasaki has been an international port
town where European and Asian continental cultures have
met and merged. Nagasaki was the key point in the modernization
of Japan as the place of entry for science and culture
developed from the outside world. In 1857, the first public
medical school teaching western medicine was founded in
Nagasaki and this school is the oldest predecessor of
Nagasaki University.
|
|
However, on August
9, 1945, an atomic bomb completely destroyed Nagasaki
Medical College. But this college was miraculously restored
by tremendous efforts of the surviving staff.
|
|
In 1949, four years
after the atomic bomb disaster, Nagasaki University was
founded as a national university by integrating Nagasaki
Medical College, Nagasaki College of Economics, Nagasaki
Normal School and others. At the time of foundation, the
University comprised five faculties, i.e., Education,
Economics, Medicine, Pharmacy and Fisheries. Thereafter,
the Faculties of Engineering, Dentistry and Environmental
Studies were added consequently comprising eight faculties.
Furthermore, the University has five post-graduate schools,
one institute(the Institute of Tropical Medicine), one
main Library with two branches, and many educational,
research and sports facilities.
|
|
The Present; on
the way to globalization
Nagasaki University aims at the production of highly qualified
graduates who have broad intellectual horizons and can
contribute to global peace and development. For this purpose,
the University offers a high quality teaching program,
where teachers receive an evaluation of their teaching
quality. The quality of their research is also evaluated
according to an internationally approved standard such
as by impact factors and citation indexes. Research activity
of staff is promoted extensively in all faculties in our
university.
|
International exchange
agreements have been concluded with 41 universities and
institutions from all over the world, and research staff
and students have communicated with each other in many scientific
fields of mutual interest. In the Institute of Tropical
Medicine, a special training program for tropical medicine
has been offered for research and administrative staff in
the developing countries of Southeast Asia, Africa and South
America.Thus, Nagasaki not only symbolizes the place where
East meets West, but also where friends meet friends.
