Utsunomiya University, Niigata University, and Nagoya University explained as examples of facility maintenance.Utsunomiya University reported on the renovation of the "Science Education and Research Center for Weeds and Satoyama," which is the only wild bird and beast control center in Japan, the expansion of the Central Library at Niigata University, and the renovation of existing facilities at Nagoya University.
After that, we exchanged opinions on the direction of business selection to be included in the FY2017 budget budget request.The committee members said, "Even though the budget is tight and maintenance costs are low, the area of facilities owned by each university is increasing.

Voice went up.In response, the secretariat replied, "I would like to show the direction at a meeting that gathers facility personnel from each national university corporation."
