Nagoya University of Commerce and Business to hold Open Campus in June, featuring “Case Method Experience Classes” driven by student input

Nagoya University of Commerce and Business will hold open campus events at the Nagoya Campus on Saturday, June 6th, and at the Nisshin Campus on Sunday, June 7th. This event is aimed at high school students and their parents, offering a valuable opportunity to directly experience our unique educational content and the atmosphere of our spacious campuses.

The main highlight is the "Case Method Education" experience class, centered on discussions among students. Participants can experience our university's unique educational approach, where they engage in discussions based on real business challenges to develop decision-making skills. Our university has implemented this method across all faculties, emphasizing the cultivation of independent thinking and communication abilities. We will also provide a detailed introduction to the "31 Major System," to be introduced from the 2026 academic year. We invite you to learn about this new learning framework, which allows students to flexibly choose and build their specialized fields according to their interests after enrollment.

What is a Case Method Experience Class?

Our university comprehensively adopts "Case Method Education," which fosters the ability to think about and explore management challenges from one's own perspective. The teaching materials are real corporate case studies. Students develop problem-solving skills by considering real-world corporate challenges from their own viewpoints. Through active learning where students take the initiative, they can enhance practical skills, communication abilities, and leadership, which are essential in society, and broaden their worldview and perspectives. These classes offer a balanced approach of "practice" and "theory" not found in other universities.

Main Programs

• Features Explanation: Introduction to the characteristics of the Faculty of International Studies, Faculty of Business Administration, Faculty of Economics, Faculty of Commerce, and the Business Management Program, as well as employment, study abroad, and scholarship systems.

• Harvard-style Case Method Class (Experience Class): Experience a "Case Method" class that fosters the ability to think about and explore management challenges from one's own perspective, unlike other universities.
