Request for Financial Support for Tokyo Tech Academy for Leadership

With the progress of digitization, many aspects of society have rapidly become globalized and complicated, thus increasing complex social issues that cannot be solved in only one area of expertise. Accordingly, Tokyo Institute of Technology established the Academy for Leadership (ToTAL) in 2018 – an advanced educational organization and the only one of its kind in Japan – to provide education in leadership excellence necessary for solving social issues and creating new value in coordination with others, in addition to education that enables students to develop outstanding expertise.

ToTAL acts like a learning commons in which a small number of brilliant graduate students of different academic fields, selected from among all Tokyo Tech graduate students who applied, can enjoy interacting among themselves as well as with faculty and staff members and others. In doing so, students will receive a deeper, more specialized education (the area of expertise they wish to pursue), liberal arts education (the most important issues they wish to address), and career development education (how they should go about preparing for a successful future) in an integrated way. At the same time, students are expected to develop leadership skills that will enable them to create new values as global citizens in this rapidly changing era, while making use of their abilities and those of others in a mutually beneficial collaboration.

We appreciate your understanding and support of ToTAL by making a donation to the ToTAL Fund to help students become scientists and engineers in a new learning environment.
