Faculty of Management Information

Students are asked to carry a Nintendo DS®. Tests and questionnaire surveys are conducted using the browser during classes. Along with determining their understanding, real-time feedback is given during class. This initiative has enabled interactive communication between academic staff and students even in large classes. The course was also selected by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology for the 2007 Support Program for Contemporary Educational Needs.

The Faculty of Management Information has a website where students themselves introduce Hannan University to high school students. Students themselves are responsible for everything from planning and content selection to page creation, including instructing professionals on design and program use. It is recommended that students simply get involved in the fields they are interested in rather than only studying from textbooks.

The objective of the Faculty of Management Information is to foster human resources with an abundance of human qualities that can succeed in computerized business and the international community, and who are equipped with the necessary skills to use information systems and knowledge of complex,　sophisticated business management.

The course aims to train students to be accountants equipped with the necessary tools, or other business professionals who have the requisite knowledge in their field. Students are trained in "management" principles by studying the workings and theory of business management, as well as analyzing practical examples of business management and "accounting," in which they master the methods of preparing and utilizing accounting data, which serves as the record of business activities.

The course involves two fields to educate and train students to conduct business in new ways and with new ideas suitable for the Internet age. One is "marketing," which prepares students to analyze and monitor markets and customers. The other is "e-business," where students learn about new topics such as e-commerce and the globalization of business through IT. The course is designed to give students the skills they need to be successful in business in the 21st century.

Students learn about "multimedia" which deals with information that directly affects human emotions, such as images, video animation and music, which is indispensable for contents creation and "information systems" where students learn to build corporate information systems backed up by the latest computer expertise, development technologies and expertise in work/management. Students gain these skills by working on actual projects involving programming and system creation in order to produce innovative engineers.
