href=\"https:\/\/www.eikei.ac.jp\/english\/about\/philosophy\/\">Eikei University of Hiroshima<\/a>&nbsp;opened in April 2021 and send its first graduates out into the world in the coming March.<br>The students going to make presentations today are the first batch of EUH, and over the past four years they have been creating a new university history.<br>You will be able to see the culmination of their learning at EUH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EUH has been aiming to establish a new educational model that is not biased toward traditional knowledge.<br>In a society where the future is becoming increasingly uncertain, we aim to nurture changemakers who can understand the big picture of the social system in which they play an active role, draw their own dreams, and realize them to bring about positive change in society.<br>We have named the necessary abilities as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eikei.ac.jp\/english\/academics\/competencies\/\">competencies<\/a>&nbsp;and have aimed to cultivate them.<br>The degree project is also a place where the competencies that students have acquired are evaluated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the students,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eikei.ac.jp\/english\/academics\/feature\/degree-project\/\" title=\"\">&#8216;Degree Project&#8217;<\/a>\u00a0also represents the culmination of learning at Eikei University of Hiroshima.<br>Both students and faculty have created new learning experiences that are different from traditional university education and have made new history.<br>Although it may not be possible to say that new learning and the cultivation of competencies have been fully completed, I hope that you will be able to see what the students have achieved today and give us any advice you may have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"..\/..\/att\/01656_21995_010.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Opening Address<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Poster
