Miyagi University offers an education providing an opportunity to acquire “affluent humanity”, “advanced expertise”, and “reliable practical ability” based on advanced practical sciences. Based on these three elements, MYU expects students and graduates to use their global perspectives to contribute the development of society and communities. MYU promotes both academic and cultural progress, as well as encouraging construction of enriched and active local communities. “Affluent humanity” is the ability to respect the thoughts and values of predecessors and others. Another aspect is being a good citizen by nurturing intelligence and sensibility. “Advanced expertise” is the ability to overcome one’s own limitations through intellectual curiosity about various disciplines and technologies. It also incorporates ability to respond flexibly to the rapidly and unexpectedly changing society. “Reliable practical ability” is the ability to use one’s own agency to think about problems based on a global perspective on the one hand and local communal attachment on the other, and then to materialize these ideas through strong will.
