What is KOSEN?

National Institute of Technology (NIT, “KOSEN”) is an institute of tertiary education and provides a continuous 5-yaer education program, which can produce engineers equipped with the same skill and knowledge as the people graduating from universities in a shorter period by 2 years.

The curriculum of Akita KOSEN consists of general subjects (which are almost the same as ordinary high schools’) and major subjects (which are offered by respective four fields to deepen students’ knowledge on their major fields). Upper grade students spend more time on learning practical skills and conducting research with the latest equipment, which will be helpful expertizes for students after graduation.

Wedge-Shaped Education

The continuous 5-year program enables us to offer an effective education style called “Wedge-Shaped Education”, in which general subjects and major subjects are related in a balanced manner. We offer experiments and practices for students to study not only the theoretical aspect but also the practical aspect of engineering.
