Message from the Director

Director, Assistant to the President, Vice-Trustee and Professor

TANAKA Tsuyoshi

University Research Administration Center (URAC) is the center of University Research Administrators (URAs) and committed to supporting their activities, such as strategic coordination to promote our research and development, including industry-government-university collaboration, incubation of university start-ups, and application, maintenance, and management of intellectual properties. As a researcher, I have had a strong belief that the existence of URAs, highly specialized experts who would cooperate with our research activities, is indispensable. Now as the Director, I will take over the achievements and duties of URAC and make every effort to enhance the functions of URAC as a general counsel to fulfill our university’s mission to our community and society.
