We train students to become nursery or kindergarten teachers who can support the individual development of each child. Through practical training, students build their understanding of children’s physical and mental growth. They study the theory of education, childcare, and welfare. They also acquire the skills needed for giving classes in art, physical education, and music—with a special focus on the piano.

As the developed world deals with aging populations and increases in lifestyle diseases, there is growing interest in diet and health. Dieticians and school nutritionists have an important role to play. Students prepare large-scale meal plans and perform dietetics experiments to gain the necessary professional skills and knowledge.

Students undergo specialized learning in two food-related programs. Under the guidance of instructors widely experienced in the field and utilizing the college’s wealth of equipment, they improve their skills in order to gain employment in a range of sectors and jobs. They can also obtain a national license; for example, as a cook or as a licensed confectionery specialist. There are also numerous opportunities, such as contests and graduate cooking/baking exhibits, for students to display the prowess gained in their study.

There are two programs in apparel and fashion. Full-fledged fashion shows are held so students can experience the entire range of work in the apparel and fashion industry. With the college being one of the few in Japan offering training for a second-grade textiles advisor license, students can aim for a variety of qualifications in apparel and fashion.
