The "self-style" way of life that graduates convey to their juniors

　A new economic and social system is being designed in Japan for the "100 years of life".On the other hand, how to design life itself is different for each person.There are many options available, but for young people who don't know the real world yet, it's hard to even feel the need to design, let alone have that criterion.

　In anticipation of these issues, Teikyo University Hachioji Campus has endeavored to expand career education for many years and promoted the creation of educational content that can be tackled immediately after enrollment.Currently, the number of career courses that have been converted into classes and credits can be earned is 52.The increasing awareness of students is reflected in the large number of students taking the course, which totals XNUMX.

　There are subjects that have been added to the lineup from this year. It was designed to give hints and awareness useful for drawing life under the title of "Life Design Learned from Graduates".The way of life of more than 15 graduates produced by Teikyo University is truly a “living teaching material”.The titles of the instructors are also diverse, including politicians, lawyers, professional athletes, and actresses.

　On this day, Kenichi Ogura, a hair and makeup artist who is active as "Ogunee", took the stage in the 400th lecture.So far, he has been in charge of more than XNUMX actresses, talents and models.He has appeared in many TV programs and commercials as a popular talent of Nee Chara.

　Mr. Ogura enrolled as a first-year student in the Department of Psychology, Faculty of Letters, Teikyo University, but he could not give up his dream of becoming a hair and makeup artist.After that, he learned hair makeup and pioneered a brilliant career.Mr. Ogura enthusiastically told his juniors how he spent his college days as the cornerstone of life design.

　"If I were to work for a lifetime, I would consider the four years at university as a" detour "and challenged whatever I wanted to do." "Freedom" is a privilege of university students. Because I was able to make the most of my time and face myself. "I was able to find my personality." "I have the actual experience of living with full power for four years, so I can still do my best with full power." I can see the way to go. "

　Such hands-on experience and lessons must give courage and confidence in facing future career paths and career choices.I asked the students who attended the lecture what they thought.

　"I will take on the challenges I can do now." "I thought I could live with dreams, believing in my own potential." "I realized that I could create opportunities for my own experience and take action. It seems that he learned a lot from Mr. Ogura's way of life, such as "It is important to move" and "I will stop trying to compare myself with others and keep in the frame".

　Life is something that cannot be designed even if you think about it alone.Because there are countless answers, many students will be rushing to this career course every time.Like Mr. Ogura, "I want to develop human resources who can live and shine in their own way".That is the ISM that underlies career education at Teikyo University.

"Career Support Center" is also involved in the planning and management of career education subjects.With a staff system of 30 people including qualified counselors, we support students' employment and career development.

Many questions were asked during the question and answer session, and Mr. Ogura was willing to take the time to answer each student's consultation.Because he is a graduate, he is full of love for his advice to his juniors.
