Live Locally, Grow Globally:  to Inspire Dreams and Forge Paths for Future Generations

熊ノ郷総長.jpg
Ever since its foundation in 1931 as an imperial university, the University of Osaka has always valued the aspiration of its founding President NAGAOKA Hantaro, who said, "Do not imitate others. Forge your own path." Inheriting this message and the roots of Kaitokudo and Tekijuku, we have pursued academic excellence based on the progressive spirit and fusion of knowledge, as well as pioneering and creative research. Throughout our history, we have produced ground-breaking academic and research results, and nurtured countless, highly-skilled individuals who have become global leaders in their respective fields.

Osaka Imperial University’s foundation was driven by the unanimous support and passion from the business, government, and political sectors of Osaka, as well as the strong desire and cooperation from the citizens of Osaka City and Prefecture. In other words, being that nearly all the land, buildings, and funds required for the university’s establishment were either donated from the local community or offered by private sectors, one could say that the university was founded by the Osaka community to contribute to Japan’s development.

For the University of Osaka to fulfil its expected role in the future, we need the understanding and support of the local community and society.
Universities must be places to attract diverse individuals with diverse dreams and inspire them to create a new future.
We intend to make the University of Osaka a place where researchers can devote themselves to their respective fields of expertise and students can learn freely and openly, taking advantage of the intellectual assets and human resources the university has traditionally cultivated.
We will continue  the culture of practical science at the university ("Handai Practical Learning"), returning the results of education and research to society and passing on the ability to pioneer the future to the next generation.

"Live locally, Grow globally"
The University of Osaka will continue to grow together with the local community and society to meet the demands of the new era.

When considering the future of the University of Osaka, it is essential to strengthen a long-term, stable financial foundation and enhance its funds. Our alumni, as well as our faculty, staff, individuals, corporations, and organizations, we look forward to your warm support and contributions to the University of Osaka Foundation for the Future.
