Message from the President

In 2024, Shitennoji University has evolved to five faculties and seven departments. The Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Social Sciences have been newly created, and now more than ever, we are able to offer learning that matches the individuality and aptitude of each student. The Faculty of Education has newly established a science teacher certification program, making it the first private university in western Japan to offer certification for teaching mathematics and science at the junior and senior high school levels.

We are also making progress in industry-academia-government collaboration with neighboring municipalities, high schools, companies, and organizations, and our presence in the region is increasing day by day. The Osaka-Kansai Expo will be held in 2025, and we are preparing various initiatives to make this a great opportunity for our students to grow. The University has an environment that allows students to give shape to their “what I want to do” aspirations. By collaborating with fellow students and people outside the university, students acquire the ability to play an active role in the real world after graduation. We will continue to be a university that provides opportunities for new encounters.
