In its master’s course, the School strives to nurture individuals who can realize the international expansion of Society 5.0, working across the six major areas of research, while flexibly integrating and collaborating with other areas of research. To this end, the School aims to foster individuals who can become the leaders with the essential capabilities needed to recognize from a broad perspective the diverse social issues faced by an international community that has grown increasingly complex due to economic development, and who also have the expertise to resolve such issues.
After completing the program, students aiming to become a researcher at a research institution may progress onto the doctoral program, though various other pathways are available for students, including positions at international organizations, government agencies of various countries, NGOs, think tanks, general trading companies, and companies related to mobility, energy, food, and medical care.
 

In its doctoral course, the School strives to nurture individuals who can realize the international expansion of Society 5.0, working across the six major areas of research, while flexibly integrating and collaborating with other areas of research. To this end, the School aims to foster a new kind of doctoral graduate, the leaders with the essential capabilities needed to devise concrete and practical solutions to the diverse social issues faced by an international community that has grown increasingly complex due to economic development, and who also possess practical and specialized skills grounded in a high level of academic knowledge. This new type of doctoral graduate will also can become “innovative researchers,” with the capability to create, disseminate, and spearhead new practical scientific approaches to smart societies that fuse cutting-edge academic fields through collaboration with researchers from different fields. 
Career pathways after completing the program are focused on researchers and entrepreneurs with the capacity to create practical scientific approaches that are oriented toward smart societies, though various other pathways are available for students, including expert positions at international organizations and government agencies of various countries, as well as positions that demonstrate managerial competencies at NGOs, think tanks, general trading companies, and private companies.
