The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, which is considering strengthening the functions of management graduate schools with the aim of improving the productivity of the Japanese economy, presented future discussions at the second meeting of the cooperator meeting.The pillars are teacher training that balances highly practical research and education, especially the enhancement of education for the service sector with low productivity. The collaborators' meeting is held about once a month until around summer to compile a report. ..

 According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan's productivity is only about 6% of that of the United States as a basic recognition in the discussion points, and it is necessary to raise the labor productivity per capita for economic growth.In particular, the non-manufacturing industry in rural areas accounts for 1% of the domestic GDP, but productivity is lower than in urban areas, and it is urgently required to develop human resources that contribute to regional revitalization.
Above all, the service field is less productive than other industries, so it was shown that it is necessary for management graduate schools to provide education to approach it.

 In Europe and the United States, people with an MBA are evaluated in major posts within the company, but since Japan is not in such a situation, it is necessary for industry to deepen their understanding of the knowledge, abilities, and degrees gained at graduate school. ing.

 In order to improve the education of business graduate schools, it is indispensable to have human resources who can educate while having a practical sense.However, he acknowledged that there is a shortage of such human resources, and that it is necessary to train teachers in order to enhance practical education that can be solved through business.

 In collaboration with industry, we will seek measures that management graduate schools can contribute to, such as dispatching instructors to in-house education, and also consider short-term intensive programs to make it easier for industry to dispatch employees to management graduate schools.
