On April 1st, NUCB held its entrance ceremony at the Nisshin Campus to welcome a new and diverse batch of students. This ceremony, a significant tradition in Japan, represents the beginning of the academic year, and with cherry blossoms in full bloom, it symbolizes the celebration of new beginnings. We're excited to see our new students start their journey at NUCB with energy and embrace our Frontier Spirit.

Congratulations on your enrollment!

During his ceremonial address, Chancellor Hiroyuki Kurimoto spoke about three themes: "The Mission of Nagoya University of Commerce and Business", "MBA Education", and "Unconventional Dreams". The foundation of education at NUCB is centered around the ability to take action and continue to persist in the face of challenges and failures. Dr. Kurimoto strongly emphasized the importance of adopting an attitude of persistent perseverance, where students should strive to challenge themselves repeatedly, regardless of how many obstacles they may encounter.
