Tokyo International University of Technology, a new practical university in AI, IoT, robots, games, and CG, has launched an international alliance for corporate internships (Alliance of Workplace Learning Expert Organisations) with educational institutions that work closely with industry in each country, including IHK Export Akademie GmbH (IHK) in Germany, Swiss Federal University for Vocational Education and Training (SFUVET) in Switzerland, and Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) in Singapore. This was in recognition of the university’s educational philosophy and past efforts in corporate internships, and the two universities plan to share knowledge and hold joint events in the future.

In November 2024, our university’s Dean Mitsuharu Takemoto was invited by Singapore to participate in an international conference. This international conference was organized by NACE (National Agency for Corporate Apprenticeship), which was established under the initiative of NYP with the aim of making every workplace a place of learning. Dean Takemoto gave a presentation based on examples of our university’s strength in “practical education in collaboration with industry,” introducing examples of topics such as skills development and corporate internships, and discussing them with the speakers. On the same day, a ceremony commemorating the establishment of this alliance was held, attended by Singapore’s Minister of State for Education, Gan Siaw Hoang.
